            Bug ID: 308131
          Severity: minor
           Version: unspecified
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
           Summary: Disabling Akonadi is too involved
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: gzankevich at gmail.com
          Hardware: Archlinux Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: general
           Product: Akonadi

The instructions I received for disabling Akonadi and Neopmuk:

"Open system settings>desktop search, uncheck enable nepomuk, then in kmeny,
type in akonadi server and make sure it's not enabled as well.

Also in system settings, startup & shutdown>service manager, uncheck nepomuk in
the 'startup services' list, click apply, then in 'session management', check
'restore previous session', and in the text box type, akonadi, nepomuk. Click
apply."

In my opinion, this is a bit too involved. It would be nice if there were a
single button to disable these features. It would be even nicer if a first-run
wizard existed for KDE which gave the user an opportunity to configure some of
the potential pain-points of KDE.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install KDE
2. Try to disable Akonadi/Nepomuk
3. Cry
Actual Results:  
Too much effort was expended.

Expected Results:  
Provided a simple, straightforward way to configure this component.
