Hm, what is Amarok 2.8.4? That is not a release version number I am familar with.

Are you the same person who comments on the bug? Did you test this patch, e.g. does Amarok build and does it pass all the unit tests?

See https://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2348624&page=2&p=13642704#post13642704 for the original discovery of the bug. It is also on the Amarok bug list at https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=374670#c11

I also updated the patch to work with the latest version from Git here at KDE (however the patch had been created, it was not in git format).
