Hi there,
I don't think this is solved in Kubuntu 18.10 Cosmic!

Today I tried to open a new account for my wife.  New user created using
terminal and all correct permissions for home directory ownership etc
applied.

Cannot use Kontact PIM due to Akonadi not starting correctly!

dorell@Kubasus:~$ akonadictl start
Connecting to deprecated signal 
QDBusConnectionInterface::serviceOwnerChanged(QString,QString,QString)
dorell@Kubasus:~$ WARNING: Could not write to config file /usr/my-new.cnf:

FATAL ERROR: Neither host 'Kubasus' nor 'localhost' could be looked up with
/usr/bin/resolveip
Please configure the 'hostname' command to return a correct
hostname.
If you want to solve this at a later stage, restart this script
with the --force option

I created mkdir -p ~/.local/share/akonadi/db_data as per the workaround
but this has not helped.

I wonder if this is the same problem or a different one?  I'm not sure
but I know that I cannot use Kontact/KMail because Akonadi refuses to
play.

I'm not a very advanced user buut I can follow instructions and use the
Terminal when asked :)  If I should provide further detail than please
ask.

Thanks.

James
