amarok - SOLVED

After morning update Amarok stopped working:

amarok
Amarok: [Loader] Starting amarokapp..
Amarok: [Loader] Don't run gdb, valgrind, etc. against this binary! Use amarokapp.
amarokapp: error while loading shared libraries: libcurl.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Thanks...

Re: amarok - SOLVED

Did your libcurl go missing? Try to reinstall that package (not amarok, the curl library one).

It was my mistake. I had curl updated from testing. Now is okay.

Re: amarok - SOLVED

I have the same error. I have libcurl 7.16.3 (before 7.16.2, but exactly the same problem) and amarok 1.4.5, both from current. Amarok errors on libcurl.so.3, which it obviously cannot find anymore, and bails out.

I have tried to rebuild amarok on the new libcurl (libcurl.so.4), but the build throws some very ugly libtunepimp errors (libtunepimp is 0.5.3). I ended up just symlinking libcurl.so.4 to libcurl.so.3. Either way, amarok should not be linking to the library itself, but to the general symlink (libcurl.so).

Yes apparently, it's tunepimp which depends on curl (not amarok directly), so I guess that's the one which needs to be rebuilt.
If that's correct, file a bug.

Ah . That would explain it. Thanks for the tip!
