[TW] What is akonadi? Can I get rid of it?
I have just installed Tumbleweed on a new partition. I previously used (and still have available) Leap 15.4. I am new to TW, and want to try it out. In Tumbleweed, akonadi_davgroupware_resource_6 keeps asking for a kwallet password. I have never used kwallet, so I don't have a password to enter. I seem to remember tabooing akonadi a long, long time ago, but I can't remember which files to taboo. I do not use kontact, kmail, kaddressbook, knotes etc. Kleopatra is useful, but I can live without it. Regards Bob -- Bob Williams

Akonadi is the KDE product information management (PIM) server. For home use, and likely for small business use as well, you probably don't need it. You can fire up YaST/Software Management, and just search for both akonadi and PIM, and delete everything you see **EXCEPT** package libKF5Holidays5 -- a couple of sddm packages and a whole lot of Plasma5 packages depend on that one.
