Problem w/amarok

[JediGorf]

I am trying to install the TransKode script to convert FLACs to MP3s when transferring to my iPod. The problem is, I had a botched install and when I tried to install again, it gave this message: A script with the name 'transkode' is already installed. Please uninstall it first.

There is no place to uninstall it in amarok's script manager, because it is not listed.

I also looked around for a while and couldn't find anything that looked like that script. I removed amarok and reinstalled (using apt) but that did not solve my problem.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Start a konsole. Enter the following two commands:

sudo updatedb
locate transkode

You may have to enter variant spellings with capital T and capital K if locate doesn't give you anything on the first try.

If you run

locate -i

the search is case insensitive

When did they add that? I've been using locate for at least a decade (probably without ever looking at the manpage) and I never knew!

Locate and find (-iname) on my slack 7 laptop don't have it, so sometime between then and now, maybe when locate split from findutils?
