Re: When will akonadi work with Gmail?

2019-11-15 Thread superaorta
This really needs attention, obviously the best fix would be to go back in 
time and change a few things so this didn't happen in the first place but it 
is probably more cost effective and quicker if the devs were more proactive 
about sorting things out with google.

FWIW the "fix" isn't working for every instance - it seems ok for the first 
machine on the account but subsequent ones trigger an amazing cascade of 
google lockouts and security warnings which sends akonadi on that machine into 
CPU melt that needs killing (and restarts everytime the network resumes) (yes 
I should report this as yet another akonadi / gmail bug but, franky, what's 
the point?).

I am always afraid the KDE will lose support or interest from other
platforms since most of the Linux distros are choosing GNOME as the
default. Will this mean that there will be less support for KDE
applications? Evolution seems to work well when set up through GNOME Online
Accounts, but KOA is not as easy. KMail doesn't work with Google at least.
KOrganizer, same thing. It doesn't seem to sync.

I am enjoying Plasma but if there will not be sufficient support for the
applications, it makes it hard to stay on it and to recommend it to others.
Especially if they are just starting out with Linux.


Thanks,

JV

See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=404990 .

In short, it's not a bug in kmail or akonadi, but rather a "political" problem 
because Google themselves blocked access.

Doesn't mean it shouldn't get fixed from the KDE side though, rather the 
opposite.
But me personally don't really know what the remaining problems are.

Maybe somebody else here can step up and finally help to solve it?

Kind Regards,
Wolfgang

See
https://www.dvratil.cz/2019/08/kontact-google-integration-issue/
for details including a workaround.

By the way, the kdepim-users mailing list would have been more appropriate for 
your question.
