[Kde-pim] Akonadi + LDAP: changes not saved to LDAP server

[Robin Atwood]

I have all my addresses in an LDAP server which I access from kaddressbook. 
Now with KDE4 I access LDAP via akonadi and, after some early problems, this 
seems to work OK. However, I have several times noticed that after making 
changes to an entry, at some later time I notice the change has reverted. 
There was a power-cut last night causing a reboot and again I noticed a recent 
update had disappeared.

So I carried out a very simple experiment. In kaddressbook I select the 
Akonadi->LDAP address book and change one entry. I then save the change and 
restart kaddressbook and view the entry via Akonadi and the change is still 
there. I then deselect the Akonadi->LDAP view and select the direct LDAP 
address book and the change is gone. So my conclusion is that changes go into 
some akonadi cache but never make it to the LDAP server. Is this some little 
restriction I was not aware of or a rather large oversight?

TIA
