I've had decent success with this: $ sudo -i # cd / # for i in `find -iname '*akonadi*'`; do rm -rvf $i; done # for i in `find -iname '*nepomuk*'`; do rm -rvf $i; done # apt-get install libnepomukutils4 That last one is required and it will pull in libnepomukquery4a and libnepomuk4; without those, kdeinit will fail (that's what I observed on my 12.04 alpha 1 test PC, anyway). You'll also need to edit ~/.config/Trolltech.conf and remove all lines with references to "akonadi" and "nepomuk." Yes, this is truly a blunt way to get rid of something, it probably will cause update problems as time moves on, it might even kill your pets and rip a hole in space. Don't do it! Unless you're prepared to handle unknown consequences :) <div class="moz-signature">______________ Steve Riley <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:stvrly@gmail.com">stvrly@gmail.com</a> +1 (206) 412-1097 </div> On 2011-12-12 09:25, Kaj Haulrich wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:4EE63901.1010508@haulrich.net" type="cite">On 12/12/2011 06:13 PM, Bruce Marshall wrote: <blockquote type="cite">On Monday, December 12, 2011 09:48:04 uteck wrote: <blockquote type="cite">KDE gets so close to being awesome, but things like nepomuk just drag it down into a nigh gnomish nightmare.
