I just gave KDE PIM suite 4.14.10 under openSUSE 13.2 another try.

Had used the PIM suite in KDE3 for a long time but in the man time changed over
to some other tools since I found that PIM suite 4 was pretty instable and
unreliable. What I've seen now with 4.14.10 looks pretty well, but ...

I'm also using Owncloud as server, and have lots of contacts with categories
assigned. As mentioned earlier this works well with the Owncloud web interface,
Thunderbird with SOGO connector, and my Android smartphone with CalDAV sync.

Unfortunately, if I add my Ownlcoud address books to kaddressbook then the
categories are not imported and listed. In kaddressbook there is only one
predefined category, "birthday", and I can only try to add additional
categories manually.

However, even much worse, when I edit an existing contact and e.g. modify the
email address only then all categories are removed when the modified contact is
saved in Owncloud, so my contact list is really messed up. This is really a
showstopper for me.

Is it so hard to get this working properly and leave existing fields in the
carddav record at least untouched when the record is written back?
