[Bug 1532180] [NEW] Amaroks Wikipedia applet does not work anymore

[b3nmore]

Public bug reported:

Amaroks wikipedia applet stopped showing any information. According to
the upstream bug report (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=349313)
this is caused by a change in wikipedias api, which requires now a ssl
connection. This means, that all amarok versions currently available on
ubuntu are affected.

The same bug report mentions a commit
http://commits.kde.org/amarok/284342b48dc32341c3553fd2b0ee5069d75b58f9
which (partially) fixes the issue by making it possible to enable ssl
for the applet. It might be worth backporting if possible.

Fedora fixed this in June 2015. If a read their solution correctly (
https://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/amarok.git/commit/?id=fa50109140fa4482bbd1ced79ed4daf440f568ee),
it's just a matter of pulling in the upstream commit mentioned in the
op.

The attached patch fixes the issue for trusty. Since there were only
minimal updates to amarok for xenial, it probably works for it too.

Its basically a backport of the following upstream commits:

I've tested the patch against the xenial amarok package
(2:2.8.0-0ubuntu9) and it solves the issue for it too.

Please fix this. Wiki integration is one of the most appreciated
features of Amarok. I'm using Zesty.

Hi guys,

Could somebody please tell me how to add the patch. I guess I copy and
paste to a text file, which file would it be? Also do I paste over
anything or do just add it to the end of the script. I never edited
something in gedit before but I guess it doesn't sound that difficult if
it's just copying and pasting. Any help would be much appreciated!

This issue is fixed in bionic due to the switch to amarok 2.9.0 (which
contains respective commits).
