Following success compiling version 2.1.1, I have now compiled 2.1.2 (stable), and am pleased to report that in this version you CAN now successfully edit 'preferences' and also 'add folders' of music.
However, I cannot successfuly add any video files; opening the 'MP4 File Type Plugin gives the error message:
"Could not load MP4 File Type Plugin
This usually means that your installation is corrupted. The error message leading to this was:
libatomicparsley.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
This is the first time I have ever compiled an application, so am not sure whether this should indicate that version 2.1.2 will necessarily work once it gets into the Precise repos. However, as far as I have tested it, things seem to be working as well as in Oneiric (but still no video).
