           Summary: kontact summary upcoming special dates always empty
           Product: kontact
           Version: 1.1
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: summary
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: baeckham at gmx.net


Version:           1.1 (using KDE 4.4.5) 
OS:                Linux

Kontact summary view upcoming special events never shows birthdays from my
contact data.

I tried the same configuration with a new user I added to my system. I created
a new entry in my addressbook and then I could see the birthday as upcoming
special event in kontact summary view.

Then I tried to make it work with my own user. I deleted ~/.kde4 completely and
wanted to start from scratch again. But when starting up KDE again and starting
kontact again the migration tool found all my contact data. What a surprise!
But than I remembered the reason could be akonadi. I tried to delete all my
user data stored in akonadi. But I couldn't. I started akonadiconsole and found
plenty of agents. Plenty of addressbooks entries and so on. I deleted all
agents. Further I deleted all the addressbooks in akonadi.

But deleting all the akonadi stuff and deleting .kde4 didn't help.

Not being able to reset the data is a bug in my opinion. Maybe I do really have
to start from scratch by creating a new user and copying all my real data in to
this account. :-(

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
happens only to my user account

Actual Results:  
no data in upcoming special events

Expected Results:  
see birthdays as upcoming special events

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.35.7
Compiler: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
