KDE PIM 5 is a bit immature. That's why kdepim4 is also still included in 42.2.
It used to be the case for Leap 42.1. It is no longer the case for 42.2. In fact, PIM 4.x is completely unsupported from KDE upstream: we kept it only to prevent surprises from people upgrading. IOW, PIM 5 (in particular in the Applications 16.12 release, sadly not in Leap) is now mature enough.
That's why 4.x will get removed in 42.3 (and is no longer present in TW).
Without that wanting to be a rant, but, with the 42.2 not having a working KDE PIM4 (no it does not work, you have to restart akonadi every boot, after exiting kontakt) and not being given any support, people are left with a) go back to 42.1 (as I did), b) do that every boot: start kontakt. Close Kontakt, then akonadictl stop, fsck and start (is that supposed "avoiding surprises" - well I was surprised) and then start the Programm again. This wouln't be an issue if 42.1 would reach up to 42.3. But it doesen't and so people will have the choice to a) drop kmail for TB b) use an "older" not really working PIM5 version, c) use for at least 6 month an outdated and unsupported distribution...... d) once there was a kde-stable repo but that is something like a nonsense IMO in 42.2 as it is supposed to be stable and working. And I do not know if it exist any more and especially what you may run into with it. The thing is, the guy has so many problems that I do not really what to say to him any more. I will try to tell him to migrate one on one the apps. But as he has already the archives, can he do that? I do not remember if he can finegrane what he wants to read in. Besides: he spoke also of the problem that the first time he just upgraded from 42.1 to 42.2 he had a "magic multiplication of identities" that went on endlessly for every boot. He did at the end a new install and claimed that he did not reproduce this. I saw in his logs also akonadi complaining about "birthday" value, but that was fixed with running fsck on akonadi. Now what is left is what I did write. Unfortunately, a lot of German users do not contribute to the bug reporting because they feel that their English is not proficient enough (although I have the doubt that it is the fear of "not doing a good report" and not be taken seriously. As for my own benefit: the problem I did encounter was that (new user account or old) when I imported the POP3 folders in local, akonadi said that the "local folder" resource was damaged and offline. Appearing in red. However new mail was filtered correctly (we are talking about the PIM4 version). If anybody has a hint what that could be.... I am taker too and grateful of course. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kde+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kde+owner@opensuse.org
