[SOLVED] How to install KMail 2?

Deusdies · 2011-03-04 21:56:58

Has anyone had experience installing kdepim-kmail2 on Arch?

This is what I did:

1) Downloaded both tarballs from ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/unstable/kdepim/4.5.94.1/src/

2) Extracted them. CD into directory, type cmake ./

3) After ~15 mins of compiling, typed # make install . Wait another 10 minutes or so

4) Now I can run KMail, but I can't do almost anything. Going to the Account Wizard gets me "Could not start the account wizard. Please check your installation." message. Clicking the "Configure KMail" crashes KMail.

I realize that this is beta and that these features may not even work, but I was wondering maybe I was doing something wrong?

Enable kde-unstable repo, kdepim 4.5.94 is packaged there.

Still useless. Extremely buggy.

Arch Linux
