The "akonadi_baloo_indexer" was not running in my KDE.

Automatically installed Debian packages (only these) were:
- libbaloocore4
- libbaloofiles4
- libbaloopim4
- libbalooqueryparser4
- libbalooxapian4
- libbaloowidgets4

Following your suggestion, I additionally installed these:
- baloo4
- baloo-utils (automatically, dependency)

Still no "akonadi_baloo_indexer" process running.
A restart did help. IT WORKS NOW! :))
The process view shows "baloo_file" and "akonadi_baloo_indexer".

Remark 1:

The tick at "Enable Desktop Search" has to be set at:
| KDE System Settings | Workspace Appearance and Behaviour | Desktop Search
It was set automatically after having had installed the "baloo4" package.

Remark 2:

For convenience in configuration, I afterwards also installed the package:
- kde-config-baloo-advanced

However, it is not really needed, so that I removed it again.

Remark 3:

After my restart, I got this authentication dialogue requesting a password:

"An application is attempting to perform an action that requires privileges.
Authentication is required to perform this action."
Action: Folder Watch Limit

It seems to be related to the process "kde_baloo_filewatch_limit",
which showed up in the process view, but disappeared after some seconds.

This issue (bug?) is described here:
https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=127876

Remark 4:

I have filed a bug report for the "kmail" package to Debian.

Thank you very much!
