<tt>Sounds very good!
I'm running Manjaro: Plasma 5.20.4, KDE-Frameworks 5.76.0, QT
5.15.2.
and checked KAlarm 20.08.3-1: It pulls as a dependency
kdepim-runtime 20.08.3-1.
For safety reasons I checked kdepim-runtime 20.08.3-1: It
pulls as a dependency akonadi, akonadi-calendar, akonadi-notes
and some other
stuff.
For me this sounds I'd get Akonadi through the backdoor?
</tt></blockquote>
<tt>KAlarm does still use Akonadi directly or indirectly for some
purposes including emailing, migrating its resources when
upgrading, accessing contacts, etc, because KDE software
libraries use Akonadi to provide these functions. So it will
depend on some Akonadi packages, even though it no longer uses
Akonadi for alarm storage and retrieval.</tt></blockquote>
<tt>But this means: Whoever wants to get rid of Akonadi (for the
database issues around this), may not use KAlarm. In my eyes, it
makes no sense to setup a database server and Akonadi, just for an
alarm-clock. May be an idea for a new, lightweight application?</tt><tt><br>
