            Bug ID: 363176
           Summary: Enabling the script console crashes amarok
           Product: amarok
           Version: 2.8.90 (2.9 beta)
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Tools/Script Manager
          Assignee: amarok-bugs-dist@kde.org
          Reporter: public@wernig.net
                CC: darthcodus@gmail.com

When the script console is enabled (Settings -> Configure Amarok -> Scripts,
there's a checkbox on the bottom of the window) and the Apply or OK button
clicked, an error popup appears with the error:

"The document could not be saved, as it was not possible to write to
/usr/share/apps/amarok/scriptconsole//Script-NNNNNNNN/main.js.
Check that you have write access to this file or that enough disk space is
available." (NNNNNNNN being a random number that changes each time)

After closing the error message, amarok aborts silently.
On each subsequent start, the error message reappears, and closing it
terminates amarok immediately, so there is no way even to disable the script
console again.

The only way is to disable it in the config file ~/.kde/share/config/amarokrc
in the [ScriptManager] section, set EnableScriptConsole=false.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Settings -> Configure Amarok -> Scripts
2. Enable checkbox with label "Enable script console" on bottom of window
3. Click apply

Actual Results:  
Error message pops up, amarok crashes and keeps crashing on subsequent restart
attempts



Actually it seems as if the checkbox that leads to this is not really needed,
as enabling the "Script Console" entry in the list on the same window opens the
console without problems.
