I forgot to mention my system data:
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Release: 16.04
$ apt-cache policy amarok
amarok:
Installed: (none)
Candidate: 2:2.8.90-0ubuntu1~ubuntu15.10~ppa2
Version table:
2:2.8.90-0ubuntu1~ubuntu15.10~ppa2 500
500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/kubuntu-ppa/backports/ubuntu wily/main
amd64 Packages
2:2.8.0-0ubuntu9 500
500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages
Seeing the two versions of the package, I finally tried to install the exact
version 2:2.8.0-0ubuntu9 like this:
$ sudo apt-get install amarok=2:2.8.0-0ubuntu9 amarok-
common=2:2.8.0-0ubuntu9 amarok-utils=2:2.8.0-0ubuntu9
And it worked now! So as Philip Muškovac pointed out the problem seems
to reside in kubuntu-ppa.
