I've recently upgraded all the Qt packages 4:4.8.2+dfsg-1 to 4:4.8.2+dfsg-2 and only today I restarted my computer. After that KMail and Kontact didn't start anymore. From what I could tell with strace, both of them were blocked in a system call (select or epoll, I think). After reinstalling all the old Qt packages, things are fine again.
I've looked for a bug report, but didn't find anything related. I'm happy that I've got things back to a working state again and I don't have much time for trial-and-error bug hunting right now, however if anyone can suggest a more focussed strategy for uearthing the cause of the problem, I might give it a try.
