Hi all,
I am having a problem with kmail. I built my laptop on the new job
with sid and the included kde 4.4.5. Set up email (kmail 4.4.7), and
it receives just fine, I can compose emails, but when I hit that send
button, both the compose and kmail windows gray out. I end up killing
it after 15 o
Is there a target date for the kde 4.6 release in sid?

In the past couple of weeks, I have noticed that the device notifier has
stopped detecting usb devices I plug in to my workstation, including my
Nokia N900's internal drive and the external SD, and my Hitachi 500GB usb
drive. They are getting picked up by the system:

Ordinarily, it doesn't seem to be an issue that the modern desktop hides
things on the command line level, how ever, when I go digging for something,
it does get rather annoying not having it in the obvious location.

That's interesting, because what is in
~/.config/menus/applications-kmenuedit.menu does not match what is showing
up in my Lancelot menu.
The menus section has:

of work...Apparently, even though the menus are "wrong," kde does not see
them as "broken."

I have a little more information to add to this mystery.
The story so far: I upgraded my workstation and my laptop to kde 4.6.2 from
the experimental snapshot on Friday. Prior to doing so, I did an aptitude
full-upgrade on both systems before and after installing.
Now, however, the desktop works

I was trying to get kmail working since my upgrade to 4.10. I never got it
working in 4.8.4 either, with similar errors. I looked online, but akonadi

I am wondering if there is a problem with kmail and encryption. I am
running two instances of kmail, one on my sid laptop (work), and one on my

I'm not sure when it happened, but I am running sid on my desktop, with the

There are mostly 4.11.[3-7] packages, but I see some much, much older

Over the past two to 3 months, I have had a problem with kmail on my

Hi Sandro,
Thanks for your response. I will try my best to answer your questions.

I have a kind of a weird one, not sure where to go with it. For the past
while, I am unable to shut down or reboot my Dell Latitude laptop. At the
end of the day, I have been doing "sudo halt"...
But in the past week or so, I have noticed that when I do this, the system
feels obligated to delete

Hey,
Got kind of a strange one here...Strange enough that I have no idea where
to begin looking.

Andy,
So are you saying to let it uninstall all of that stuff? This is my wife's
machine, so I really can't afford to have KDE broken on it. My machine is
running pc-bsd and is quite happy.

Has the gcc5 situation stabilized in sid? A dist-upgrade still wants to
uninstall a bunch of stuff:
The following packages will be REMOVED:
coinor-libcoinutils3 coinor-libosi1 digikam digikam-private-libs gimp
kde-full
kde-plasma-desktop kde-plasma-netbook kde-standard kde-workspace
kde-work
So kde-full, kde-standard, and the kdebase-workspace/kde-plasma packages
are not required for kde5, and won't uninstall necessary packages? I don't
want to break her kde install.

I figured I would ask here. In the past week and a half or two weeks, my
kmail/kontact has slowly come unglued. I am running the following versions
on a sid machine:
ii akonadi-backend-mysql 1.13.0-7
ii akonadi-backend-sqlite 1.13.0-7
ii akonadi-server
I have not. Currently working with the mail admins at work, but at this
point, they are tossing straws into the wind.
I'm wondering if it is an issue with my mail people or with MS playing
passive-aggressive again against open source.
