            Bug ID: 394633
           Summary: How to delete home directory using kontact
           Product: kontact
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: contacts
          Assignee: tokoe at kde.org
          Reporter: audun at gangsto.cz
                CC: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

So I deleted my entire home directory using kontact. Here's how:

I never used kontact before, but had .vcf files in ~/.local/share/contacts
synced with vdirsyncer from a carddav server.

This was before installing kontact and Akonadi.

Now I decided to use Kontact and carddav directly, so I don't need those
directories anymore, so I deleted them using the terminal and adjusted
vdirsyncer config to not sync those anymore.

I noticed the directories lingered in kontact, so i deleted it from the view
there as well, and i restarted kontact. It proceeded to explode with error
messages, and now my home directory was completely cleaned out.
