I've been trying it out for a few days now and one pretty irritting bug is that Amarok crashes on startup. I've been "forced" to use Banshee, but I think Amarok is nicer.
Apparently it has to do with kdelibs of the wrong version, but I fail to understand how to reinstall kdelibs properly. When I try following instructions on the net I get a lot of broken dependencies from other installed packages wanting the older version (10.5.x) of kdelibs. I am guess 10.95 really is compatible but how do I persuade the packages to accept the later kdelibs?
I am guessing the problem will resolve it self "soon" as I am seeing posts about the release of KDE 4.11 in the near future - but still. Any suggestions?

I can reproduce the problem.
Looking into my system I see that:
# yum info amarok ... Repo : installed
From repo : updates-testing
...
so I think that the easiest solution is Rex to rebuild amarok using the new libs. Or FWIW Rex's gnomes (like Santa Claus). :-D
This can be done locally but for the moment I don't have either the time to do it myself or to describe how to do it.
Sorry. :-(
