git clone git://anongit.kde.org/akonadi

git checkout -b 1.13 origian/1.13

    Preallocate a capacity of 16 for the returned list.
    
    See also 159abaf2f372eaa633db8f69ff6b1edd459998cc in kdepimlibs on
    why. I'll quote it here again:
    
        In my data, most often the final size of fetchResponse is 16.

mkdir build

cd build

cmake ..

ccmake .. (in case you want to adapt any settings)

make -j4 (adapt to number of CPU cores)

sudo make install (only last step as root)


I think for just Akonadi you do not need to set any environment variables, 
but I am not completely sure, I use the following to have KDE pickup 
things from /usr/local alternatively:

martin at merkaba:~> cat .kde/env/kdedirs.sh 
#!/bin/bash
if [ -z $KDEDIRS ]; then
        export KDEDIRS="/usr/local/"
else
        export KDEDIRS="/usr/local/:$KDEDIRS"
fi

if [ -z $QT_PLUGIN_PATH ]; then
        export QT_PLUGIN_PATH="/usr/local/lib/kde4"
else
        export QT_PLUGIN_PATH="/usr/local/lib/kde4:$QT_PLUGIN_PATH"
fi


Maybe the QT_PLUGIN_PATH is needed. But you can try without first.

ps aux | grep akonadi tells you whether the /usr/local one is used.

Note: kdepim-runtime contains resources, they are still used from /usr 
unless you compile kdepim-runtime yourself as well. Its not needed to 
benefit from the database improvements and I just used a self-compiled 
Akonadi server with the rest Debian 4.14.2 kde packages.

You need some build deps. I think apt-get build-dep akonadi-server can 
help you install these for Debian.


It works here, no warranties. :)

Ciao,
