I would not do it if you are planning on installing 2.2. It has dependencies on TagLib 1.6 which is not part of Kubuntu 9.04 (9.04 has version 1.5). If you are new to compiling programs you will not get it to work. I would wait for the release of Karmic in a month, upgrade, then go for Amarok 2.2.

Ok, I'll wait for the Karmic version.

If anybody know or work with the people that are bulding this Kubuntu version, please, make them atempte to this mysql-commom dependency of KDE 4.3 that introduce problems when we need to upgrade MySQL 5.0 to 5.1

thanks

karmic will include mysql5.1 is its default, I believe.
I haven't played with mysql in *buntu for a while, but it was a mess trying to run different versions when I did. I did have better success running mysql from a LAMPP setup - all self-contained and not dependent on the os
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-linux.html. You can run just mysql in that setup.
