Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: amarok
I have installed a fresh Lucid Lynx. Then I've installed Amarok.
Three problems were noticed:
1 [minor] When starting up, the blue startup picture with a howling dog
does not disappear.
What happens: I have to click on it so that it goes away and I can see a dialog
which asks me how do I set up Amarok.
What should happen: The startup picture should disappear without user's actions.
I chose "basic" and eventually could see the Amarok's window.
2 [critial] Amarok shows no music tracks in the "Local Music".
What happens: There is no way to play this music using "Local Music"
section. Although it is possible to do it through the "Files". Of
course, it means the whole point of using Amarok is lost as it does not
work with collections any more.
At the same time: There is music in the "Music" directory; Amarok
believes it is the only directory where my music collection is; Amarok
clearly does something to scan through it (if the number of files is
big, it is possible to see the progress of the scan); It works with all
kinds of files: mp3, ogg, flac, etc, and even if there is just one file
in the collection.
What should happen: Amarok should show music tracks from my collection
in the "Local Music".
3 [minor] Finally, when I right-click on the Amarok's icon in the tray
and tell it "Quit"...
What happens: The icon disappears along with the Amarok's main window.
However, "ps ax" shows that the amarok process is still running.
What should happen: the "amarok" process should also disappear.

Note: I have also tried the same with removed ".kde" directory. It makes
no difference.
Note 2: I have attached a test .ogg file. It is just some noise I have
recored in "Sound Recorder". Amarok is unable to put it into collection.
