The pim agent Messages.sh catalog name is wrong as discussed on IRC.
balooshow and baloosearch are missing Messages.sh
kio_tags is duplicated. What's the plan for it? Kill the old one? In that
case, can the new one search tags created in nepomuk?
Same question for kio_timeline.
I'm also concerned about what all the others are asking. In an ideal world the
user should not care if he's using an app that uses baloo or uses nepomuk,
since, as far as i understand, the "user exposed functionality" will be the
same (even if the inner stuff is different), so if previously i did a tag
somewhere and it showed somewhere else, i'd still expect this to work even if
the stuff is using different "backends".
As far as I understand, that's virtually impossible, but then it leads to the
question. What's the plan? Just port *all* of nepomuk uses over to baloo for
4.13? What about the uses in kde-workspace?
Cheers,
