Comment 1 pashaev.sergey 2011-07-08 18:29:35 UTC
Can confirm it on Arch Linux with KDE 4.6.5 (KDEPIM 4.6.1)
Comment 2 Federico Muciaccia 2011-07-13 13:46:54 UTC
The "Import" button should also do the equivalent of the console command

kjotsmigrator --interactive

to import the old local .book files in ~/.kde4/share/apps/kjots

Bugs 303145 and 317307 are similar.
Bug 336579 looks highly related.
Comment 5 comet.friend 2016-05-22 09:45:36 UTC
Can reproduce it with KDE 5_16.05 on Slackware64-14.2 RC2.

Compiled against Qt 5.6.0

KJots has been retired for almost a year, all bugs for it are being closed.

Quoting the public announcement
https://kontact.kde.org/blog/2024/2024-07-01-kde-pim-may-june-2024/#retiring-kjots-and-knotes

We have decided to retire the KJots and KNotes applications. These applications have not seen any support or development in many years and are not in a state that we feel comfortable shipping to our users. With the introduction of Marknote, KDE can now offer a modern, well-maintained note-taking application that we can recommend users to migrate to. The latest release of Marknote has gained support for importing notes from KJots and KNotes, so no notes will be lost.
