 (with kmail being my most important KDE app, this is not good)

The most recent updates broke it, as you say, on Ubuntu (gnome).  Removing
the nepomuk hidden directories, as suggested on the userbase troubleshooting
page, fixed it for me.

I am about to rebuild my primary home desktop, and am looking for a more
stable KDE distro that is apt, not rpm, based.  Cannonical's KDE support is
looking like Red Hat's did with 6.2-8.
