Since you mention Amarok: the current Nepomuk integration into Amarok is still only a technical preview that never worked correctly, mostly due to the Nepomuk fallacies we all know about. From our POV you can ditch Nepomuk for Baloo any time, this can be easily disabled in the code and, if Baloo really is the long-expected answer to what makes Nepomuk so bad, we will happily suggest a GSoC project to make Amarok work with Baloo as it should. FWIW: Amarok is not part of the SC releases anyway. FWIW2: I am all for ditching Nepomuk from the ISO completely and only suggest Baloo, and leave the user to decide if they still want to use Nepomuk. It is their problem, then, not ours anymore :) Regards, Myriam -- Proud member of the Amarok and KDE Community Protect your freedom and join the Fellowship of FSFE: http://www.fsfe.org Please don't send me proprietary file formats, use ISO standard ODF instead (ISO/IEC 26300) -- kubuntu-devel mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-devel
