            Bug ID: 330514
           Summary: the akonadi personal information management service is
                    no operational
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kontact
           Version: 4.12
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: grave
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: david.wright12886 at googlemail.com

I've run into this problem on upgrade to 4.12. 

I seemed to fix this yesterday by deleting all the hidden .akonadi folders. But
alas, on reboot it has returned.

No resource agents found.
Details: No resource agents have been found, Akonadi is not usable without at
least one. This usually means that no resource agents are installed or that
there is a setup problem. The following paths have been searched:

'/usr/share:/usr/share/kde-plasma:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/'; make sure
this includes all paths where Akonadi agents are installed.
