amarok1.4.10 in fedora?

Postby dedanna1029 » 10 Jun 2010, 22:13

At one time, I had installed amarok1.4.10 in fedora 10, and in fedora 12. The problem is, I forgot how I did it. Dummy here didn't write down her steps.

I've been trying like all heck to use Amarok2 in Fedora, but like with every other distro, when it's importing my collection, it crashes. This is even if I create a mysql external db.

I really need Amarok1.4.10. I have an old rpm for it, but it's not working (understandably), the dependencies are no longer there for it; amarok1-1.4.10-7.20090624svn.fc10.i386.rpm, which I used on the previous versions of Fedora (and as previously mentioned, I've forgotten how I used it).

Honestly, I've gotten to where I don't really mind KDE4 that much, but Amarok2 has got to go, and I have got to get this rpm going, and get Amarok up 'n running; I really really really need it; it's important.

Is there a way to install a previously-versioned Fedora repo (10 maybe?), so that this thing will find the dependencies for the rpm that I have for Amarok1.4.10? Last I checked, one had to install the fedora-release* rpm, and then could go from there, but I can't do that in this case, as obviously, I'm on Fedora 13, and that would muck it up.

Thanks!

Unfortunately, no. This is not Fedora-specific. It's happened with every single distro ever since Amarok2 came out. I need to get back to 1.4.10.

Thanks.

As I have stated before I only know how to get Amarok1 in Arch. So when you are finished with Fedora and ready for the good stuff let me know :mrgreen:
