This should scare the developers more than users having troubles > migrating emails, IMO. There is nothing wrong with having "old KDE inside" if it works. That said, I don't claim that pim 2 does not work. We simply don't know it and it's too late in the game to find out (IMHO). Inexistance of a good migration tool helps to make the decision though. FWIW, I'm pretty sure that migration won't ever be fixed. However, users will have more time to adjust at the start of the next release cycle. What is more, I think somebody will be kind enough and upload kdepim 4.8.4 to backports and wheezy users will have the best of two worlds (a choice) in the end. -- Modestas Vainius <modax@debian.org>
