[Bug 710968] Re: separate akonadi-dependant plugins into another package

[Harald Sitter]

Please feel free to report an upstream bug at http://bugs.kde.org to get
plasma-netbook to grow a setting so that one can deactivate the contacts
search (thus preventing akonadi from getting started). When such a
setting becomes available I am all for deactivating the contacts runner
by default making it opt-in thus ensuring a more lightweight default
netbook experience.

Technical note: the contacts search is powered by the same underlying
technology as krunner (ALT+F2) so it is perfectly reasonable to
activate/deactivate certain abilities.

Arguably upstream should altogether not use the contacts runner by
default, given that it will fire up akonadi at login, slowing down that
and having akonadi around at the off chance of it being useful because
someone actually tries to search for a contact in the search&launch page
which seems rather unlikely given that there is absolutely no affordance
for that behavior.
