12 Seems to be good.

14 Depending on how much customizing you do to your kde (and mozilla), you
15 can try copying them over too. If anything breaks, you know what to
16 "uncopy". =:^/ But it might be easier to do that and find what to uncopy
17 if necessary, then re-customize everything, at least if you're as heavy a
18 customizer as I am. And worst-case, you simply erase that bit and start
19 clean.

21 Meanwhile, for the akonadi stuff at least, there's a bit of config
22 outside .kde. I'm not /exactly/ sure of the default location as I've
23 changed enough stuff around here to never be sure, but I /believe/ that
24 bit is in ~/.config/<something> by default. (Maybe .config/akonadi/ ?)
25
26 But if you don't use kmail, kontact or kopete either, it may be that
27 you'll never notice an akonadi issue even if there is one.
