[Amarok]: The chosen database module could not be loaded

[mazoon]

Hi,
I am not quite sure on what are you referring to, but in case it is the beta release announcement thread,
on Flatpak I stated there:

@mazoon

I am myself not familiar with flatpak processes, so probably not right away at least by me, but if some flatpak veteran would like to set everything up, that would of course be awesome.

There is one but it’s only in beta on Flathub. The update needs some fixes before or can land.

I really can’t see a

@ben2talk

‘should be ready in a couple of hours’

there, to be honest.

Some fixes have since landed, and everything’s 3.0 at GitHub - flathub/org.kde.amarok, but still pending moving out of beta: Move out of Beta · Issue #5 · flathub/org.kde.amarok · GitHub. I don’t know Flatpak, maybe that’s something that can be tried out somewhat easily already and feedback given?

On forum link,

They did provide an incredibly useful link to the Amarok Forum: https://forum.kde.org/viewforum.php?f=127

I’m not quite sure where this is from. It seems to appear in handbook and maybe some other places, “Revision 2.9.0 (2018-05-21)”. Apparently documentation doesn’t update itself. Who would’ve known.

@ben2talk

Maybe because it’s for Plasma 5 and we’re already up to Plasma 6, IDK - but it won’t build for me with Plasma 6 anyway.

Shouldn’t be a problem. Both KF5 and KF6 libraries can coexist on same system; I’m running one of my development systems KF5 and one KF6.

@ben2talk

cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kf5-config --prefix
CMake Error: Unknown argument --prefix`

Aside from the fact that closing ` is missing from your command (was apparently missing from my build-fix-try-suggestion, fixed now), I don’t see any reason why that wouldn’t work if KF5 development libraries and tools are installed.

3.0.0 is also available as binary package from various distribution repositories amarok package versions - Repology
