I just have upgraded from kubuntu 18.10 to 19.04 and I found Amarok player has disappeared!

How could I install it again?

Thanks!

    I tried to create an AppImage from deb files with pkg2appimage.

    amarok.yml

    app: Amarok
ingredients:
  dist: disco
  packages:
    - amarok
  sources:
    - deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ disco main universe
    - deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ bionic main universe

    Then run bash -ex ./pkg2appimage amarok.yml (with https://github.com/AppImage/pkg2appimage/blob/master/pkg2appimage)

    The result is an AppImage that runs on a system with Amarok installed but not if not installed (native).

    My solution for now is to add the bionic tls sources again and install amarok from there. This is not a very clean solution but the simplest for now.

    Add to /etc/apt/sources.list:

    deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ bionic main universe
deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ bionic main universe

    Then run apt-get update and apt-get install amarok.
