Public bug reported:

On 1st start on a clean install (or suitably wiped akonadi configs),
Kmail (or Kontact with Kmail integrated) crashes on 1st run with:

org.kde.pim.akonadicore: Failed SpecialCollectionsRequestJob::slotResult 
"Invalid parent"
org.kde.pim.mailcommon: "The Email program encountered a fatal error and will 
terminate now.\nThe error was:\nInvalid parent"

Kmail will launch and run on subsequent starts.


TO REPRODUCE:

Requires a pristine install with NO config files or db created yet (live
iso is fine)

OR

stop akonadi with 'akonadictrl stop' and do:

rm -fr ~/.local/share/akonadi* ~/.cache/akonadi* ~/.config/akonadi*
~/.config/specialmailcollectionsrc

then launch kmail.

removing ~/.config/specialmailcollectionsrc (which would not exist in
pristine install) seems crucial, as leaving that in place results in no
crash.
