Dear packagers

I am happy to announce the immediate availability of Amarok 3.2.82, the second beta 
for the upcoming Amarok 3.3 release.
A source tarball is available at
https://download.kde.org/unstable/amarok/3.2.82/amarok-3.2.82.tar.xz.mirrorlist

In this version, the most important changes have been done to audio backend. Phonon has
been dropped, and the audio backend is built on GStreamer now.
More details at 
https://blogs.kde.org/2025/06/25/second-beta-for-amarok-3.3-available/

One should also note that due to the database update, downgrading from 3.3 betas is not directly possible, and returning to pre-3.3 versions
requires the database (at ~/.local/share/amarok/mysqle/) to be manually backed up beforehand.

Thanks for packaging.
On behalf of "The Amarok Development Squad"
Tuomas
