I recently upgraded to amarok 2.1.1 from 2.0.2......
the problem is whenever I try to run it, it starts updating system configuration and doesn't even stop after an hour.....
When I cancel the process, amarok it shows this

Amarok could not find any collection plugins. It is possible that Amarok is installed under the wrong prefix, please fix your installation using:
$ cd /path/to/amarok/source-code/
$ su -c "make uninstall"
$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=`kde4-config --prefix` && su -c "make install"
$ kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
$ amarok
More information can be found in the README file. For further assistance join us at #amarok on irc.freenode.net.

I don't even know where is the path to amarok source code......
Please help........
