amarok2 cannot find any collection plugin

[Joerg Schumann]

Hi,

I didn't have any luck asking this on #amarok so I try it here:
After building amarok2 from trunk, installing to ${HOME}/kde/bin and then 
launching it, it tells me that it cannot find any collection plugin.

The (beginning of the) exact error message is:
> Amarok could not find any collection plugins. it is possible that Amarok is
> installed under the wrong prefix, please fix your installation
> [...]
> cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` && su -s "make install"
> [...]

I'm running Debian testing +unstable +experimental with KDE4 and amarok2 
packages installed. I'd like to keep a working installation of amarok in place 
and have the self-compiled version in a different location. 
Therefore I don't want to use the above CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and overwrite the 
packaged amarok installation.

rdieter on #amarok suggested I should check my KDEDIRS environment variable. I 
set the value to "/home/joerg/kde:/usr" but that didn't make it work.
I looked in ~/kde/lib/kde4 and there exist 4 libamarok_collection*.so files.

The console output of amarok --debug is:

What can I do?

Joerg
