Hi, Thanks for summerizing this so nicely, that will help to explain to ftpmasters, why we needs this in Buster. > A fix for Debian Buster definitely seems possible now that Sandro > backported the fix, however I do not know Sandro's plans there.

I actually have a backport in mind, for these patches, but before requesting this, the package needs to enter testing. It is possible to install the same packages on a stable system ( i tried it on a friends computer, who was hit by this issue), but this is NOT recommend! Because you loose the further upgrade path. I would recommend to wait for several days until the patch is available on Buster. Just for be more clear, the links are not correct, I fix this: https://phabricator.kde.org/D20243 https://phabricator.kde.org/D19487 > [1] Automatic recovery from Multiple Merge Candidates error > > https://phabricator.kde.org/D21455 did you tried this patch locally? > > [2] For some details see also "Common Infrastructure" in: > > March and April in KDE PIM > > https://www.dvratil.cz/2019/05/march-and-april-in-kde-pim/ okay this reference another patch I want to backport additionally: https://phabricator.kde.org/D19983 > [3] KMail: "Multiple Merge Candidates" error and how to fix it > > https://www.dvratil.cz/2017/01/kmail-multiple-merge-candidates-error-and-how > -to-fix-it/ that article is referring to another patchset, that was merged two years ago.
