no way. I'm not going to install a tonns of kde*-devel just to compile
amarok. It is enough that I've installed kdebase, kdelibs, kdeartwork...
 I dont need there packages for anything except the amarok.  If I was
enjoying compiling things myself I would stay on gentoo and never
install fc.

more than that, from all this fanciness of amarok the only useful
feature for me is dynamic playlist. I madman was able to do that amarok
 would never appear on my box.

well, I thought that yum takes care of that. Isn't this the main feature?

I tried to ask on their irc-channel, they sent me to taglib developers :)
