Public bug reported: I am using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS with the GNOME desktop. When I upgraded from 9.10 I noticed an extra icon in the system tray which was for something called Nepomuk and the "semantic desktop". I didn't ask for it and I certainly don't want it. I've managed to get rid of the system

The screenshot shows DiffPDF 1.1.2 on the left and evince on the right, both showing the same page of a PDF. This particular version of DiffPDF had been rebuilt to use poppler 0.14.0.

Why isn't this a bug? Kmail clearly doesn't need nepomuk so why should people be forced to install something they don't need or want to run something else that doesn't need it? So surely it is a bug. -- Nepomuk error message appears at startup and won't go away by itself and can't be turned off
