completed by: MinSik CHO

mentors: Edward "hades" Toroshchin, Myriam Schweingruber

Amarok has quite a few open bug reports, but some are not for the latest stable version.

Try reproducing the bugs listed here: http://bit.ly/QKchHH

with Amarok 2.6.0 or the Amarok 2.6-git version. Comment on the bug whether you can confirm it for 2.6-git or if it is not reproducible. 

The command 'git describe' will tell you the exact git version you use, please specify this version in your comment in the bug.

The task is complete when 30 bugs are tested. Please report your findings in a spreadsheet.

Prerequisites:

The student must be able to reproduce a step-by-step instruction given in a bug report.
