It is best to send the e-mail also to amarok-devel@kde.org (to which you should subscribe) to prevent such situation in future. > I'm trying to get started contributing to Amarok, so I compiled it from > source (not as easy as it sounded =P), and headed for some easy bugs to fix. > > I came across this one > > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?i[c++]d=311329<https://bugs.kde.org/show_b > ug.cgi?id=311329> > > (better error handling), in which you said > > *I'm making this an junior job (about better error reporting) suitable for > Amarok developer newcomers, students wanting to participate in GSoC.
