SystemSettings -> Resources Create the conventional addressbooks as files in ~/.kde4/share/kde4/services/resources - exactly as we did in KDE-3.5 In the list of types of resources, there are Akondai related item, just don't use those, and kmail will use the file directly. > I have unmerged nepomuke and all related packages have been remerged > with -semantic-desktop set in /etc/make.conf: akonadi and nepomuk are not the same thing, not even remotely. akonadi is a backend store for pim data (mail, addresses, etc). It is application agnostic, so in theory at least Thunderbird, kmail and Evolution could all use akonadi to get to the same data. nepomuk and strigi are involved with desktop search and indexing all of your data. It is similar in principle to Beagle on Gnome (but with bigger design scope). There's no reason Nepomuk can't use the data presented by akonadi for it's indexing, but it's not a requirement - it can just as easily index conventional maildirs. You can't avoid having akonadi, nepomuk etc pulled in somehow. Just don't run them. -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com
