Why do you think Amarok is to blame here? This might as well be gvfs. I'm not going to test anything gnome related esp. when such fragile things as VFS of any kind is involved. However, Amarok 2.1.1 has a couple of general bugs with collection scanning abruptly stopping at some point and this is not related gvfs. Some bugs of this kind were fixed in Amarok 2.2 and I can only suggest you try Amarok 2.2 Beta 1 from experimental and report back. -- Modestas Vainius <modes...@vainius.eu>
