Hi list,
as Myriam repeatedly mentioned, we need to push a patch to packagers so that
Amarok can be used with KDE 4.8. Some known Amarok developer (Bart, Ralf,
Mark?) should probably send (a variant of) following message to kde-packager
list. I've tested the 2.5.0 + attached patch personally with kdelibs 4.7.4 and
4.8.0. (on Qt 4.8.0, that shouldn't matter)

Hi Amarok packagers,
there is a bug in Amarok 2.5.0 [1] when run on kdelibs >= 4.8.0 (no matter
what kdelibs version Amarok was compiled against) which significantly degrades
user experience. If you ship kdelibs 4.8.0 or plan to do so, please consider
applying following patch to your Amarok 2.5.0 package which fixes the problem.
The patch was also successfully tested to work with kdelibs 4.7.4.
