Some coverfetching jobs in the statusbar get stuck at 0% and never do anything. Maybe also a collection scanning process but that might be unrelated.
They also seem to cause Amarok not to quit.

Created attachment 28200 [details] Jobs are stuck Probably very similar to what I get with Dynamic playlist. Sometimes the status bar is stuck at 100% and won't go away.
SVN commit 877358 by nhnielsen: Fix for progress bars getting "stuck" when fetching covers. Should also fix other cases where this could happen. BUG: 172978 M +2 -0 covermanager/CoverFetcher.cpp M +1 -0 statusbar/KJobProgressBar.cpp WebSVN link: http://websvn.kde.org/?view=rev&revision=877358
nhn's fix and mine are essentialy equivalent, mine kills the job earlier on xml fetch and nhn's kills it later but the result is in both cases that there's no way I could get stuck jobs. WRT what nhn said in IRC about committing for extra safety I see no reason for it so I just confirm that this works.
This isn't fixed for me in trunk. At this moment the progress bar is stuck at 46% and it says: "Generating Playlist..." Note that I'm using dynamic playlist.
I think we might be dealing with two different issues here. The one with CoverFetcher is most certainly fixed.
But the title is pretty generic. In fact http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=173252 was marked as a duplicate of this one.
Closed this as the CoverFetcher issue is fixed, for the other issue see bug 173252.
