After today's KDE Neon update from Akonadi 4:16.08.2+p16.04+git20161117.2007-0 to 4:16.08.3+p16.04+git20161208.0216-0, Migration Agent spins at 100% CPU. It starts doing this immediately after login and also continues immediately after an "akonadictl restart". Upon "akonadictl stop", Migration Agent crashes instead of shutting down cleanly.
In Akonadi console, this Agent is never displayed as running or online, but labeled with an unconnected plug icon and shown as offline. Meanwhile, it's happily spinning away, eating CPU and causing lots of noise due to the CPU fan having to run at full speed... The only workaround I could find so far was entirely removing this Akonadi Agent using the Akonadi console. I'm not sure what effects this might have, however... What option's do I have to determine why this agent is not initialising correctly but (apparently) enters an infinite loop instead? What's it doing?
I see this as well with the kde neon release. Besides the migration-agent eating CPU, kmail does not show me my mail from imap accounts anymore and sending mails fails with database errors. Removing account and adding it back did not help. Removing .local/share/akonad neither.
Related to bug 373443, appears to be fixed on master and branch head.
