Nothing I could not figure out, and with Scott's patching it to 4.7.2, it was reduced to having to run the migrator manually.
Regular (non-testing) users may not have the same reaction to this as we do, but as of yet in Kubuntuforums there are not as many complaints arising as one might guess -yet. To be honest, I would have thought that the 4.7 version would have seen more improvements from 4.6 - as a user. For me, this is the first time anything KDE has left a bad taste in since KDE 3.0's kmail actually deleted my mail. back around 2002 or somewhere. But bad tastes do go away.
