After my failed update to and then new install of Kde Neon based on ubuntu 24.04, kontact doesn’t work any more. It tells me, that some essential components don’t work. Starting from konsole gives me this:
martin@martin-aspirea51544g:~$ akonadiconsole

Please register the custom scheme ‘cid’ via QWebEngineUrlScheme::registerScheme() before installing the custom scheme handler.

So it seems, akonadi doesn’t work (mysql server).
What can I do?
