--- Comment #10 from MARTIN NEBE <martin.nebe at gmail.com> ---
Please reopen this bug because it has come back !

It behaves exactly like specified in comment 6, and it is all the time 100%
reproducible on my two systems, which are:
- OpenSUSE 12.3 (KDE 4.10, Kontact  4.10, Kontact Summary 1.1,  Special Dates
Summary 1.0)
- PC-BSD 9.1 (KDE 4.9.3, Kontact 4.9.3, Kontact Summary 1.1,  Special Dates
Summary 1.0)

I have a (newbie?) theory regarding its relation to  bug 185544 mentioned in
comment 7:
My guess is that the Special Dates Plugin starts a new instance of Kontact when
it is going to query the calendars. When I am running Kontact from a terminal
window on my OpenSUSE system I get a very long list containing the following
type of messages:
kontact(2805) CalendarSupport::Calendar::Private::updateItem: Discarding
duplicate incidence with uid  "7E7000E8-537B-48A9-9BE3-45BEA2AC7F7B" 
kontact(2805) CalendarSupport::Calendar::Private::updateItem: Discarding
duplicate incidence with uid  "2AB58731-9AC2-47B9-A9BC-A151EF929754" 
kontact(2805) CalendarSupport::Calendar::Private::updateItem: Discarding
duplicate incidence with uid  "6AC5D91C-D5A3-4DFB-96F4-F22276C32692"

I don't think these are true duplicates. Perhaps the query result contains each
uid twice because a second instance containing a copy of the same information
has been started by the Special Dates Summary plugin.

Fiddling a little more with the choices in the Special Dates Summary pane I
have seen that by unchecking either all events boxes OR all contacts boxes
Kontact will not hang anymore (but it will still generate the duplicates
messages I just mentioned).
