Grr... sorry, I meant "filesystem" not "initscripts" (probably because I was
playing with the latter ATM). I don't think it's the initscripts' (or
systemd's for that matter) job to deal with these kinds of mounts. So I've put
a request to bugtracker (FS#28205).

This is probably related to a pixman bug
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=45009
But I'm not absolutely sure.

Assuming you're using IMAP email, and are beyond caring about filters & other 
account-specific options, I'd suggest closing KMail, deleting the e-mail 
account using AkonadiTray (or "Personal Information" in System Settings), and 
then stopping and starting Akonadi (using AkonadiTray) before adding the 
account again.

That helped me when I ran into issues when I first switched to KMail 2.

problem installing custom kernel

Hi,
I tried compiling and installing the linux kernel from ABS. I modified the
PKGBUILD file as mentioned in the wiki. The kernel compiles fine and the pkg
gets built with the name linux-custom as specified in the PKGBUILD. But when I
try to install it I get the following error:

$ sudo pacman -Uv linux-custom-3.2.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz 
Root      : /
Conf File : /etc/pacman.conf
DB Path   : /var/lib/pacman/

Log File  : /var/log/pacman.log
GPG Dir   : /etc/pacman.d/gnupg/
Targets   : linux-custom-3.2.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

:: linux-custom and linux are in conflict (kernel26). Remove linux? [y/N] N
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: linux-custom and linux are in conflict

I have attached the PKGBUILD.

OK. I read the wiki page once more and found out my mistake. Since my kernel
has already been compiled can I create the package without compiling it again?

 Another data point - I'm using TB daily (12.0a1) on KDE with system
fully updated from testing repos and I have no problems with that and
never had a problem. Not suggesting you use testing .. just what I have.
