By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

As you pointed out the PCLinuxOS forum, some work has been done to make Amarok compliant with new API provided with xinelib-1.2.10.

Is Amarok still crashing on your system?

I don't use PCLinuxOS, so I don't know what they've done. I mentioned PCLinuxOS as the exact sample what happened with Amarok on openSUSE 15.1 because the error report generated by Amarok was the same, consequently we've got the same bug in both systems-PCLinuxOS and openSUSE 15.1.

Later I tried Amarok on openSUSE 15.2 with no success. Since then I don't use Amarok anymore because I don't want to waste time exploring the API compatibility and all this crap. I prefer using another music player which just works.

Rest in peace, Amarok. You were the best player.

Hi mosaic,
can you let us know what version of xine you have on your system? Is it 1.2.9 or 1.2.10? and also what version of TDE you are using?
