Hi
i tried to build amarok2 this weekend and it's a real hassle to get it 
compiled, qt needs to be rebuilt with an other patch, 2 depends need to be 
added and mysql needs to be built with -fPIC option to get it build correct.
I prepared everything and amarok2 runs fine now.
Are there any mysql experts who can tell me if this hurts existing databases?
Thanks for your answers.
  

Wasn't there concerns about a performance hit in mysql when compiled 
with -fPIC?
