Tutorial: Install Clementine Music Player in Kubuntu 10.10 Maverick Beta

    Clementine is a KDE4 port of the beloved music player Amarok 1.4. Although Clementine still needs work done in order to reach Amarok's functionality - like support for scripts, or for example I couldn't get it to add a whole music directory to the playlist - is there a way to do it? - it comes with pretty decent features up to now:

    - equalizer
    - Last.fm song submission, love/ban buttons
    - music library
    - file browser
    - radio support
    - cover manager


    Installing Clementine in Kubuntu 10.10 Maverick Meerkat Beta
    We will use the packages in the Clementine PPA in order to install it on Maverick. Fire up a terminal and type:

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:riccetn/clementine

    This command will add the Clementine PPA repository inside your /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ directory.


    Notice that the current version in the PPA is 0.3. If you already have an older version of Clementine installed on your system, it is best to remove it first:

    sudo apt-get remove --purge clementine

    Now update the packages list:

    sudo apt-get update

    And finally, install Clementine by typing:

    sudo apt-get install clementine

    And you're done! To start it up, press Alt+F2 and type clementine followed by Enter.
