In fact I updated it later and tried to run it again, but nothing 
changed in the end result.

Are your menus for the current user only or for everybody (Default User)?
Apart form permission problems, I do not see why it should not work, either.

It would be nice to have a trace log of all actions carried out by the 
installer, though.

And it would be even better if the installer was able to recreate the 
missing icons when run at a later time...

Thanks for putting the amarok experts in the loop - I hope nobody gets 
offended because of cross-posting...
