Bug Description
Binary package hint: amarok
I have my music collection under /var/misc/mp3 because /var is the "rest" of my laptop disk, after /, /usr, /home/*, swap and so on.
In menu "settings", selection "configure amarok..." in the "Collection" control panel I get a list of paths as follows
- / (blue, as partially selected)
+ /home
+ /media
It's impossible to select paths under /var here. There appears to be some directory path filter to protect users against themselves. I've managed to get Amarok to understand things by hand editing the config file, but this is Wrong and won't help to fix bug #1.
Regards,
Nicolai

On my media box which I just started using amarok on (also feisty) I can select whatever under / and find /var/miscmedia/mp3 without problems. Sort of looks like a problem with amarok settings inherited from earlier ubuntu versions? I started at 6.04 and have dist-upgraded my way from there.
