Description Marcin Juszkiewicz 2018-07-25 09:27:00 UTC

Description of problem:

I have read about Zanshin. As it is available in Fedora 28 repositories I installed it. On first run it said that my system is missing Akonadi...

So I installed 'akonadi' package. Still complained. Installed 'akonadiconsole' to check what is going on. It also complained.

So I asked on #fedora-kde and whole fun started...

At the end it turned out that installing 'kdepim-runtime' was a key to get Akonadi working.

Started Zanshin, played a bit and decided to remove it anyway.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How reproducible:

always?

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install Fedora 19 and upgrade it every release
2. Remove some packages in meantime
3. Install something which needs Akonadi

Actual results:

Install 'random' packages to satisfy dependencies.

Expected results:

Install application which uses Akonadi and have it running after one "dnf install application" command.

I do not see akonadi, kdepim-runtime being offered for installation so Zanshin will not run properly anyway.

Comment 2 Rex Dieter 2018-07-25 14:59:39 UTC

What you really need (at least) is
kf5-akonadi-server
kdepim-runtime

see also bug #1602214 

the 'akonadi' package is a legacy one from kde4(libs) days, offered only for it's runtime libraries that are still required by other legacy kde4 applications.
