Ok, thanks for information. I probably could reproduce it as long as 
rdiff-backup carries Amarok 2.2.1 files, but as long as it just happened 
for one user and one machine its probably not worth the effort. Tell me 
whether you would be interested in that.

Otherwise let's see how it goes with Amarok 2.2.3 then. ;-)

Amarok 2.2.2 is working fine so far. Thanks for the update ;).
