The terminal output of the 2nd try to run the migrator

Version:           4.8 (using KDE 4.8.0) 
OS:                Linux

When doing a test upgrade from kubuntu 10.10 (kde 4.4) to 12.04 (kde 4.8) with a configured disconnected IMAP account, after upgrading the migrator just outright failed. Trying to start kmail didn't work as it failed with "Failed to fetch the resource collection" as Local Folders was unconfigured. (seperate known bug, I know). Removing the migratorrc and running kmail-migrator --interactive seems to have migrated everything fine but gave 4 notifications about "Kmail Folders: Unusable configuration."
Looking at akonadi console it's configured fine though and kmail works, except that it's fetching my whole mail account again so it didn't migrate anything after all?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Install a Kubuntu 10.04 VM
configure kmail with a disconnected imap account
upgrade to 12.04 with do-release-upgrade -d
and reboot

Actual Results:  
The migrator shows up and immidiately gives an error that the migration failed and starting kmail results in a fatal ressource collection error that makes it unusable.

Expected Results:  
after login the kmail migration is done and kmail works fine.

Xsession-errors

Xsession-errors of the session if it helps
Comment 2 Philip Muškovac 2012-02-26 11:35:51 UTC
And typo in the description, 10.10 should be 10.04
Comment 3 Denis Kurz 2016-09-24 18:15:25 UTC
This bug has only been reported for versions before 4.14, which have been unsupported for at least two years now. Can anyone tell if this bug still present?

If noone confirms this bug for a Framework-based version of kmail2 (version 5.0 or later, as part of KDE Applications 15.12 or later), it gets closed in about three months.
Comment 4 Denis Kurz 2017-01-07 22:11:34 UTC
Just as announced in my last comment, I close this bug. If you encounter it again in a recent version (at least 5.0 aka 15.08), please open a new one unless it already exists. Thank you for all your input.
