It seems Akonadi needs MySQL, which isn't installed on my PC.
What's the output of "equery list sql" on your system?
There is empty output from that command. I already unmerged akonadi-server and all applications, which depends on it.
(In reply to comment #5) may try to rebuild qt-sql and and then start "kres-migrator"? it helped me to start akonadi-server.
Confirm problem, but kmail and akonadi worked after upgrade some time for me. After latest plasma crash I can not start akonadi-server. I use sqlite driver. KDE 4.4.2, akonadi 1.3.1.
Created attachment 229465 [details] crash log same messages for any new user with empty home dir.
After some struggle, I saw that on my system the problem was that akonadictl was using the command "sqlite" to initialize its database when starting akonadi. But "sqlite" runs sqlite 2, while the akonadi database needs sqlite 3. I worked around it by setting up things so that "sqlite" is a link to "sqlite3" when akonadi starts up, but it's a tremendous kludge.
sqlite backend is functional starting with akonadi-1.4.0, earlier it wasn't much of a use.

i'll have to close it, sqlite support is fixed in very recent versions of akonadi-server as stated in comment 10 and we can't do much for the earlier versions. The only way to get it working in 4.4 is to use mysql
