Last time i checked the amarok-base in the extras repo DOES have mysql 
enabled, but since not many people have those libraries or want mysql its not 
build in by default.

Install libmysqlclient and mysql-clients for MySQL and pkgconfig for any other 
library Amarok might need find in order to build.

	# pacman -S mysql-clients libmysqlclient pkgconfig

Update your abs:

	# abs

Build for your self

	# cd /var/abs/extra/multimedia/amarok-base
	# makepkg
	# pacman -A amarok-base-1.4.4-3.pkg.tar.gz

That should fix that problem aswell as many others.
