[Akonadi] [Bug 445217] Configuration file mess under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=445217 --- Comment #4 from Philipp Reichmuth --- The reason for this bug report was not that I tried to edit the configuration manually, but that I tried to back up my KDE configuration and the files are all over the place. I appreciate that there is a technical reasons behind it. But for a user who knows nothing about the architecture of Akonad,i this is not very intuitive and can be confusing. Akonadi is not the only app that does this, but it's a particularly obvious one because it makes its own config subdirectory, but then puts several files outside of it. I prefer how Falkon or KDE Connect do it - one subdirectory under $XDG_CONFIG_HOME with all config data underneath it (and ideally persistent stateful data should then go separately under $XDG_STATE_HOME). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=445217 --- Comment #3 from Christophe Giboudeaux --- That's why resources have graphical configuration modules. Config files are not supposed to be edited manually. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=445217 --- Comment #2 from Philipp Reichmuth --- There may be a rationale to it, but as a user I find it rather confusing to have seven Akonadi config files under ~/.config, and then another subdirectory called akonadi with another 30 files. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Akonadi resources have theirs into $XDG_CONFIG_HOME. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
