30 The error is simply telling you that indexing is not active, try in
31
32 System Settings -> Desktop Search -> Nepomuk/Strigi Server Configuration ->
33 check "Enable Nepomuk Semantic Desktop" and "Enable Email Indexer"

35 The crazy thing is that the migration won't work without this enabled, yet the
36 process isn't aborted if this mandatory part of it is absent/not running...
