So I deleted my entire home directory using kontact. Here's how: I never used kontact before, but had .vcf files in ~/.local/share/contacts synced with vdirsyncer from a carddav server. This was before installing kontact and Akonadi. Now I decided to use Kontact and carddav directly, so I don't need those directories anymore, so I deleted them using the terminal and adjusted vdirsyncer config to not sync those anymore. I noticed the directories lingered in kontact, so i deleted it from the view there as well, and i restarted kontact. It proceeded to explode with error messages, and now my home directory was completely cleaned out.
> the directories lingered in kontact Could you be more specific in which view folders where still displayed, even after removing them?
It was folders in .local/share/contacts They contained a bunch of vcards from my carddav account On 29 May 2018 01:08:54 Christoph Feck <bugzilla_noreply@kde.org> wrote: > https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=394633 > > --- Comment #1 from Christoph Feck <cfeck@kde.org> --- >> the directories lingered in kontact > > Could you be more specific in which view folders where still displayed, even > after removing them? > > -- > You are receiving this mail because: > You reported the bug. > You voted for the bug.
