[Bug 1538331] [NEW] Akonadi: Please package fix for 1.13 into Kubuntu 14.04 packages

[Stephan Diestelhorst]

Public bug reported:

I am a very happy user of the Kubuntu Backports PPA, but have recently
been bitten by this bug here:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341884

Is there any chance you guys could please package the fix from here

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=341884#c11

It is here in git:
http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=akonadi.git&a=commit&h=9c0dc6b3f0826d32eac310b2e7ecd858ca3df681

The tagging / branching is not great, so I can see why it has not been
picked up.

I have had a chat with Scarlet who suggested that this might have been
packaged already by Jonathan, but despite running off the Kubuntu PPA +
Backports PPA, I was still bitten by the underlying bug that causes
Akonadi to duplicate data and effectively eat my SSD.

The workarounds in the KDE bug work, as in akonadi fsck and then rm -rf
.local/share/akonadi/file_lost+found; but the writes (35 GB / 2hrs) wear
out my SSD and force me to fstrim all the time.

** Affects: ubuntu-release-upgrader (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: New

** Summary changed:

- Akonai: Please package fix for 1.13 into Kubuntu 14.04 packages
