Installed from:    Compiled sources

When I import my collection from Amarok 1.4, the "lyrics" entry in all of my songs gets messed up -- all of the line breaks ('\n') get changed into spaces.

I think this probably has something to do with the fact that lyrics are now stored as Rich Text (HTML).

I found this bug when I searched for bugs related to import of Amarok 1.4 collections, but I don't think bug 216222 is a duplicate of bug 177570. 

I don't have any problems with line breaks. The lyrics look fine after import except that xml tags that Amarok 1.4 was able to interpret now show up as code. They should either be filtered during import into V2.2.1 or Amarok should translate them.

This is an automated message from the triager:

Amarok 2.4.1 has been released on May 8 already. Could you please upgrade and test if you can still reproduce this bug?

Without feedback within a month we will close this bug as resolved.

Thank you for your understanding.

Closing for lack of feedback. Feel free to reopen if you can still reproduce this with Amarok 2.4.2 beta 1 or later and provide the necessary feedback.
