Oh I see, kudos for you for discovering it early! I've added it unaware that 
it is not supported by not-so-recent Qt versions. (but I was surprised that Qt 
Designer allowed me to specify icon by name)

I would definitely bump dependency to Qt 4.8. Debian testing has it and we 
already thought about that in summer. And we don't really test on Qt 4.6/4.7 
so we usually don't spot errors. I've even seen some Amarok code comments 
complaining that it would like to use Qt 4.8 feature. If someone knows a 
reason not to dump the dependency, shout now or be quiet forever. :-)

On a related note, what are your views on bumping our mandatory KDE dependency 
to 4.8.4? Debian testing has it. That would allow us to remove some ugly work-
arounds in IpodCollectionFactory and perhaps remove some copied code 
(KRatingPainter? needs checking). This can wait, for sure, I'm just not 
entirely comfortable with releasing Amarok 2.7 claiming it is compatible with 
KDE 4.6/4.7 when it gets so little testing.

Cheers,
