Hi all

I installed kmail from the experimental tree on my N900 (Maemo 5) device.
It does not yet work, so I need some help, but first of all I would like to 
thank you for this great work!

After some installation trouble I got it running (see below) and it looks 
great and is very responsive (CPU overclocked max @850MHz).

I installed according to the readme here: 
http://userbase.kde.org/Kontact_Touch/Maemo5

apt-get could not install it and showed the following errors:

apt-get install kdepim-runtime
Reading package lists... Done

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

to be installed
                  Depends: strigi-daemon but it is not going to be installed
-----------------------------------
I could install them  all manually with 

apt-get install kdebase-runtime-data kdelibs5-emoticons libkemoticons4 
kdelibs5-runtime libkio5 libkparts4 libkio5 libstreamanalyzer0 libclucene0ldbl 
kdepim-mobile tasks-mobile korganizer-mobile kdepim-runtime kdebase-runtime 
libkdesu5 xauth

however the also needed package libxmuu1 could not get found.

I finally found it in the SDK repository:
http://maemo.org/packages/package_instance/view/fremantle_sdk_free_armel/libxmuu1/1.0.4-1/


So, after that the install could get completed.

Best regards
George
