iphone zero tracks in amarok

[manuw2009]

Binary package hint: amarok

This is a downstream report for kde bug 245648
Using Maverick rc + amarok + ifuse+libgpod+libimobildevice, the iphone/ipod touch appears as a plain "apple ipod" (not the real custom name like "Joey's iphone") with 0 track.
It used to work well in lucid.

Please note :
1/ Reverting back to Lucid's packages libmtp8 & libmtp-dev
2/ Installing libimobiledevice0 from Lucid
just brings the ipod touch back in amarok with all its tracks !

I can confirm the bug and the workaround.

The bug affects me, the workaround doesn't.

When installing libimobiledevice0 from lucid, i get an error that the package is attempting to overwrite packages from libimobiledevice1 ( /usr/share/hal/fdi/information/20thirdparty/31-apple-mobile-device.fdi ). The install fails after delivering this message. I'm skeptical of removing libimobiledevice1, since so much on Ubuntu 10.10 seems to rely on it.

I don't see which version of amarok you're using, I'm using 2.4.0

Problem is not fixed yet with KDE 4.7.0 and Amarok 2.4.3 (Oneiric Beta 1)

[manuw2009 (manu-wagner)]

libimobiledevice0 not needed anymore under Ubuntu Natty.
libmtp8 1.0.2 (lucid version) still needed though

[manuw2009 (manu-wagner)]

Well, a more convenient by-pass is to use any libmtp version (e.g natty's) BUT disable MPT support in amarok options !
