Thanks Rajko, Cameron and Carlos!

It was strange, but I went through this again, fresh install -> add
oss, non-oss, update repos and then update, then add videolan ->
libdvdcss -> remove videolan -> add packman -> the same problems with
amarok.

playing around a bit I discovered that it gives package dependency
failures for libtunepimp5 (and more), so I went to that package, there
I had two of them libtunepimp and libtunepimp5. When I tried to update
the libtunepimp it failed, but if for libtunepimp5 it updated and
automatically deleted the other one.

I also had to go and "manually" update the libspeex package (right
click - update, I have no idea why it was giving the package depedency
problems with that) and then amarok updated successfully.

One thing, I still have that always updating amarok down there, but
when I go to yast it doesn't show that the new version is available.

I will really give it a second thought next time when thinking of
reinstalling the system.

Thanks a lot again!

Sergey
