Running Kontact/akonadi with postgresql database. Here's what you have to do
- install libQt5Sql5-postgresql
- stop akonadi
- backup ~/.local/share/akonadi, then remove it.
edit ~/.config/akonadi/akonadiserverrc and make the bottom part look like this

 [QPSQL]
Host=/tmp/akonadi-knurpht.P8f537 <<<<< change this
InitDbPath=/usr/bin/initdb
Name=akonadi
Options=
ServerPath=/usr/bin/pg_ctl
StartServer=true

then restart akonadi. It will take some time to build the database.
