configuration for the collection in amarok2 ?

[Thierry Herbelot]

Hello,

I've just installed the latest KDE 4.3 and amarok-2.1.1, with the following 
setup :

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- The following external packages were located on your system.
-- This installation will have the extra features provided by these packages.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
   * kdelibs - The toolkit Amarok uses to build
   * qtscript-qt - QtScript Qt Bindings
   * mysqld - Embedded MySQL
   * zlib - zlib
   * strigi - Index metadata of files
   * libgpod - Support Apple iPod audio devices
   * Gdk - Support for artwork on iPod audio devices via GdkPixbuf
   * libmtp - Enable Support for portable media devices that use the media 
transfer protocol
   * curl - cURL provides the necessary network libraries required by 
mp3tunes.
   * libxml2 - LibXML2 is an XML parser required by mp3tunes.
   * openssl or libgcrypt - OpenSSL or GNU Libgcrypt provides cryptographic 
functions required by mp3tunes.
   * gobject - Required by mp3tunes.
   * loudmouth - Loudmouth is the communication backend needed by mp3tunes for 
syncing.
   * Qt4 Glib support - Qt4 must be compiled with glib support for mp3tunes
   * glib2 - Required by libgpod and mp3tunes

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- Congratulations! All external packages have been found.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------


But I don't seem to be able to create a new collection. When I select 
Options->Configure Amarok-> Collection (and select a tree with some mp3 
files), amarok2 seems to be just sitting there and nothing happens.

Is there some kind of howto for configuring amarok2 ?

	Thanks in advance
