Well, by memory (since I had to fix it a couple of times) there is ruby stuff in Amarok configuration files. So if your Amarok package was build with Ruby support and then Ruby is not installed on your system, then it will complain. Quick search on the Debian's version of Amarok package gives: "Last.fm stream playing support (if ruby is installed)" (In reply to Michele Calgaro from comment #1) > Well, by memory (since I had to fix it a couple of times) there is ruby > stuff in Amarok configuration files.

RPM can detect *most* dependencies automatically, but that's mostly done through detecting which libs are being linked to by the package, which means that ruby probaby needs to be added manually to the spec file. RE last.fm support, see bug 1332, last.fm support is broken at the moment. If there's a configure/cmake switch to turn it off, it should be used for the time being. >If this is the case, then the Amarok package for EL6-based distros needs ruby

I guess you are right. I do not build/package for EL6 or other RH based distros, so I think the best person to address this is Francois, who is already "attached" to this bug.

Created attachment 2552 [details] Screenshot of bug report On CentOS 6, when Amarok finishes playing a playlist, it complains that it can't find ruby, as seen in the screenshot. This does *not* occur when ruby is installed, only when ruby is not installed. I have not installed amarok-ruby, so unless Amarok now requires ruby regardless of whether or not amarok-ruby is installed, there should not be a complaint.
