How to migrate Amarok mysqle database from 32- to 64-bit

[Martin Steigerwald]

Hi!

Michael Schuerig found out that Amarok 2 was not able to read its 
database, after he switched his Debian system from 32 to 64 bit [1]. Even 
just copying the ~/.kde/share/apps/amarok/mysqle/amarok directory into 
/var/lib/mysql on a system with a 32-bit MySQL server didn't help him to 
dump the database.

I am still using 32-bit, but sooner or later I will switch too.

How to migrate the database? I really do think there should be a migration 
path. Actually I think Amarok should at least put up some warning with 
some hints on how to migrate the database. Ideally it would offer to do it 
for the user.
