Comment 3 for bug 316889

By the way, I consider loss of ratings as a grave loss-of-user-data bug (they are manually entered). That is very bad even for an alpha release (though it's the only data I _do_ have backups for...)

Anyway, isn't it usual policy to enter non-backwards-compatible packages with a different name? I really think this should have been called amarok2, even if the old package is subsequently purged from the repositories. It would have at least allowed users to keep the old amarok without messing around with 'hold's in aptitude.
