The Amarok Team is happy to announce the release of Amarok 2.3.2.

This release brings with it much requested bugfixes for some long-standing bugs. Specifically, Dynamic Collection has received fixes and should now work better with external hard drives and USB mass storage devices (Collection directories on these media will need to be rescanned for the changes to take effect). The Collection Browser now refreshes properly after a full rescan, fixing a bug where it would show incorrectly cached entries until Amarok was restarted.

Very importantly, Amarok 2.3.2 is now compatible with KDE’s 4.5 release. Older Amarok versions would exhibit a number of serious bugs with it.

The Last.fm internet service now works without using KWallet, which was a problem that concerned many of our users. The podcast section has seen many improvements and podcasts can now be grouped into folders. Searching capabilities have been much improved. In the collection filter box, it is now possible to search for many new criteria, including file format, file size, and last played date.

We are also very proud to present you a brand new Quick Start Guide, available here: http://userbase.kde.org/Amarok/QuickStartGuide. Thanks a lot to Valorie and the Amarok Documentation Team for this great work. If you are interested in contributing to the ongoing work on the Amarok Handbook, please contact us on amarok-promo@kde.org, or talk to us in #rokymotion on irc.freenode.net
