Fwd: Amarok 2.4.3 doesn't write covers to the files

[Myriam Schweingruber]

I asked Arvind (nick is dnivra on IRC) for more information on IRC:
these files are part of the collection and already contain a cover. I
see nowhere in this output a hint that at some point Amarok tried to
add a cover to a file.

Rick: could it be that it doesn't write the cover when there already is one?

Regards, Myriam

Hello everyone,
I'm running Amarok 2.4.3 on Kubuntu 11.10. I've updated the covers for
a lot of albums and they're displayed in amarok but they do not get
written to the files. When I open the file in VLC, the old album cover
is still displayed. I've check the option "Write covers to file" in
Settings -> Configure Amarok -> Collection but Amarok still doesn't
write it.

I installed the debug symbols and ran "amarok --debug --nofork" and
here's the output: http://paste.pocoo.org/show/563257/

I was told by Valorie in the IRC to not include the startup
information but wasn't sure how to do so and so have included all
startup information. If there's some more information required, do let
me know and I'll definitely provide them.
