Has anyone had this issue? Tonight, when I started KMail I got a crash of the Akonadi maildir resource agent. Everything was fine in the morning, I didn’t change anything or mess about, just a normal session. The crash report will go away if I close it 5 times or so. I have seen the problem in a couple of fora, apparently the best workaround is to rename the relevant file in /usr/bin (the file named akonadi_maildir_resource). Kmail is now functioning properly (I gather it is not yet fully integrated with Akonadi, so it shouldn’t matter too much). I would like to know if anyone else has had this problem, and any solutions you might have.
I tried submitting a bug report via the automated process; unfortunately, when I tried downloading the debug tools I got stuck on an error in downloading the repo data from the update repository:
PackageKit Error repo-not-available: Failed to download ./repodata/cefcc9d56264aa169f70a53c560ffc39cb6af575-deltainfo.xml.gz from Index of /update/11.3
I assume the repo update issue is a temporary mistake in the update process?
Send me any thoughts on the akonadi issue, please!
The crash report will go away if I close it 5 times or so.
It would be helpful if you post the exact error message.

This problem has been mentioned in several threads in this forum already. I recommend being patient.
We are sorry. Akonadi Resource closed unexpectedly. Blah blah.
This comes up at the bottom of the crash handler:
Executable: akonadi_maildir_resource PID: 4631 Signal: 6 (Aborted).
The developer information tab shows this:
Application: Akonadi Resource (akonadi_maildir_resource), signal: Aborted

If I restart KMail, I usually don’t get the crash. It doesn’t even appear every time I start KMail. Not sure how to reproduce the error every time, I log in start KMail and the crash comes up.
By the way, the smileys are not actually there, they got automatically inserted when posting the report!
