We discussed this on the irc channel yesterday. So far:
- 11.4 + 4.7.2 (KDF) : works (ctrippe) - O:F + 4.7.2 (KDF) : fails (tigerfoot) - O:F + 4.7.1: fails (qbit) - O:F + master (self built) : fails (me)
The first suspect was the boost packages. I tried to rebuild kdepimlibs vs boost 1.44 (vanilla), 1.46.1 (vanilla), 1.47, same result.
Side note: we didn't get any report upstream about this issue (I checked the akonadi, kaddressbook & kontact products)
Am I wrong or is KDEPIM 4.7 a complete mess? So many issues with KMail2, Akonadi issues and now this issue with contacts. Wouldn´t it have been better to test KDEPIM more thoroughly before offering it to the public? Currently my recommendation is to migrate to Mozilla Thunderbird, KDEPIM 4.7 is just not usable IMHO.
So far this looks like an openSUSE specific problem, and KDF is exactly for this kind of testing to uncover these issues. Business as usual, the sky is not falling.
Some news: The issue is not OpenSuse specific after all. We got reports from Fedora and Arch users. The cause was also identified. A change between shared-mime-info 0.90 and 0.91 is causing this issue. The breaking commit was also found. The details are in the bug reports [1][2] [1] https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=283615 [2] https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41701 Christophe
