What am I supposed to do with the: KNotes Migration Tool?
Version
4.13.2
Specifically note that this is not V.x.0. I know better than to even
install that. I figure, however, that if a major screw up was allowed
to slip into the ".0" that by ".2" that it will either be fixed or
removed. WRONG.
and distribution
Linux from Scratch is a distribution.

Sorry, didn't notice that in your sig.
info would probably help.

Did you read the above mentioned report?
I have now read through the Bug Report. It is interesting.
All that I can report is that I do have migrated Notes in what appears
to be the correct place in $HOME/.local/share/notes as described in the
Bug Report. However I don't know how to get them to work with KNotes.
However, KNotePad will open them and they do appear to be my notes.
It said that it would take a quite a while to run. Well, it has been
running about 6 hours (AMD 4400+) and it has eaten _ALL_ my alarms from
KAlarm.
KAlarm and KNotes are different apps.
Yes, but they both have *.ics files. I was rather surprised when I saw
pop up messages about KAlarm when it was supposedly migrating KNotes
files. I tried this again and apparently it was just a coincidence.
For me it helped killing and restarting KAlarm.
Didn't help.
I find that I still have the old files. Removing the new Akondi files
and restarting KDE restored my alarms. But only once. Perhaps I was
lucky or perhaps it was because there were active alarms pending.
I also can report that my old alarms mysteriously reappeared after I
restarted KDE more than once.
Also, I think that it was just a coincidence that I was receiving error
messages about the alarms while the KNote migrator was running.
I am still getting KAlarm error message pop up windows occasionally.
So, basically, now I have two applets that I found useful that don't
work. This is not what a user should expect on a STABLE release.
Try to run knotes-migrator again. If that doesn't help, you'd better ask at
https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdepim-users
I will try the KDEPIM-Users list. Perhaps someone can tell me how to
configure KNotes by hand.
