KdePIM results testing migration from Plasma 4 to Plasma 5



I decided to set up a VM to test how well my KdePIM data would migrate from 
Plasma 4 to Plasma 5. I used the KDEPIM settings exporter tool. Results 
were...mixed. 

1. My newsfeeds were fine
2. My messages imported alright...but they were imported as a separate 
directory structure. Long story short, I now have two "inboxes"-one of which 
is empty.
2a. weirdly, it knows to send new messages to the inbox that already has my 
data in it.
2c. It is impossible to get rid of the empty one.
3. My mail filters silently COMPLETELY failed to import
4. My mail transport info imported fine, except that my incoming and outgoing 
transports lost their human readable names and are replaced with titles like 
"akonadi-resource-125467a" -- annoying but not a huge issue.
5. Local Contacts imported fine
5a. gmail contacts are nowhere to be found.
6. Calender and tasks silently failed to import, Something tells me this may 
be a Google Calenders issue.
7. I did not test KAlarms

I should note that I have multiple gmail calanders and accounts plus my local 
resource.

I also got nonsensical dialog boxes about providing a directory for my gmail 
contact and calanders-- which gave me options to put directories into my 
mailbox(??).

How do I go about providing bug reports from here?
Thanks,
--Shawn
