[Bug 112984] Odd folder or file names cause amarok to incorrectly log duplicate entires in the collection database

[gabe]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: amarok

Version:           1.4.5 using 3.5.6 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Odd Folder and File Names cause Amarok to record multiple copies of items in the database. Case in Point:
I have but one Copy of the 10,000 Maniacs unplugged album in my library. Amarok lists three copies of each song in the 10,000 Maniacs directory. It does the same thing with the Tool album 10,000 days. I suspect this is because of the comma.

Here are some screenshots that entertain and delight.

1. This is the the Amarok collection and two of the three files with the 'edit info' box present so you can see the path to the song file.

Note: Upon further inspection, I've discovered that it's with just about any directory that has an 'unusual' character in it. Apostrophes, extra punctuation all seem to make this happen.
