Right. So, I think this report may have been a bit of a mix of different
issue causes. There is a number of things that can cause Akonadi to fail
to start. One of them apparently has to do with the graphics driver
(oddly enough). Since some of you reported problems regardless of driver
version and others suggested that a down/upgrade resolved the issue I am
left to assume that not everyone is having the same cause although the
result is the same (akonadi not starting, error dialog coming up and so
forth).

Talking about different things at the same time is not very helpful so I
am going to close this bug report as invalid in accordance with the
upstream report that indicates that the nvidia driver versions available
in 13.10 should not cause any problems (please also make sure that you
do not use a PPA with unoffical driver versions - such as the xorg
edgers PPA).

Everyone who has Akonadi startup problems even with a supposed to be
working version of the nvidia driver or a whole different driver to
begin with, please report new bugs at bugs.kde.org using the Akonadi
error dialog. They may look like the same bug but really they are not
and warrant investigation on their own.

Thanks all.
