Hi,
yesterday, I've installed the 4.3.85 packages on my F12-i686 machine.
Thanks a lot to Rex and the other people from the KDE-SIG for providing
the packages!

and sure enough akonadi doesn't start during kde startup.
However, once kde is up and running I can start akonadi w/o problems from
System Settings->Akonadi, WTF? When I run the test, two problems are
highlighted.
1) MySQL server log contains errors.
100102 9:36:11 [ERROR] Can't open and lock privilege tables: Table
'mysql.servers' doesn't exist
I've found the following userbase entry:
http://userbase.kde.org/Akonadi#Table_.27mysql._servers.27_doesn.27t_exist
I haven't tried the recommended fix yet, because I'm a bit confused. I'm
supposed to modify a default akonadi config file to make akonadi work in
the first place? Seriously? Should I bugzilla this for Fedora if the fix
works?
2) Previous Akonadi server log error found
Control process died, committing suicide!
I expect to find something like this because akonadi didn't start correctly
at kde startup. But why does it start w/o any problem when I start it
manually? Kontact doesn't work correctly as long as akonadi isn't running.
For instance, while it shows the mail subject in the message list pane, it
doesn't display the mail contents.
I've attached the error log of akonadi with all the errors it shows right
after kde startup. I repeat, akonadi starts fine, if started manually, so
these errors can't be real or they may be the result of a race condition
during startup.
Cheers,
Andreas
