Select a track in the Collection, right-click and choose 'Edit Track Details'. I get a window with a 'Cancel' button top left and nothing else.

If I do the same thing but select the track from the playlist instead of from the collection, the dialog works.

A regression from 2.0.2. Collection management in 2.1 is very broken indeed.

I have the identical problem. It would be nice to get this one fixed.

This is a known problem, and the fix has been release since quite some time already, check out the Amarok 2.1.1 package

I'd love to and have already tried. But when I go to the Amarok 2.1.1 page and choose download, it directs me to the Kubuntu version which is 2.1. How do I get 2.1.1 for Kubuntu without having to compile it myelf?
