You mean someone is actually trying to fix Amorak? I 
became so annoyed at its spurious error messages on 
Slackare 13.37 that I am in the process of installing non-
KDE software wherever possible, e.g. Claws-mail instead of 
Kmail that I have used for a long, long time. Indeed KDE 4 
is an almost total mess, to the point that I have switched 
my GUI to XFCE. But when I fire up Kmail I still get those 
stupid Akonadi messages. I have to start Kmail twice each 
time. And the Kwallet password message comes up and takes 
control in the middle of doing something else, so I enter 
a sentence fragment instead of my password. The list goes 
on.

My advice to Lydia, whomever she may be, is to find a way 
to make KDE apps run without Amorak. There seems to be no 
value added. The Kaddressbook and Kmail don't talk to each 
other, and so on.
