Bug#242519: Workaround
Chris Cheney wrote: kdepim 3.2.2 is already in sid. If the bug isn't fixed yet it won't likely be fixed anytime soon. That bug seems to imply the upstream author doesn't feel like fixing bugs in the 3.2 branch. Perhaps if you bug him some more he will fix it? Well, I'm not so sure about this. I've got version 4:3.2.2-1 of libkdepim1, kpilot, and korganizer installed but the About dialog of korganizer keeps telling me 'Version 3.2.1 (Using KDE 3.2.2)'. Since the bug (and the workaround) actually concerns korganizer, I'm not sure whether these guys referred to the KDE branch in general or korganizer specifically.
Bug#242519: Workaround
I found the corresponding bug in bugs.kde.org: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=74221 So, until kdepim-3.2.2 makes it to Debian unstable, use the workaround described there: unset the local time zone in korganizer's settings.

However, since the recent update to KDE 3.2.1 in Debian Sid, it suddenly spawns 4 small, empty, black-colored notes, titled '[Actions]' and '[Display]', 2 of each kind. I have not the faintest idea where they come from but I consider this an *important* bug since it renders the whole package unusable to me. (I'm heavily using knotes in combination with kpilot, so my Palm is flooded as well by those strange notes.)
