So, here is a summary of the migration (see comment #18 above):
• it completed successfully after a long time (more than one hour for about 20k emails on a 3core fast desktop)
• it added a new IMAP Google account/folder I didn’t have and seemed to slow things down significantly
• it created some Local Folders (besides KMail folders) and placed a few of my “Inbox” emails in the Local Folders’ Inbox. The rest stayed in the right Inbox within “KMail Folders”. This is probably a result of the first failed migration
• I used to have Kontact to autostart on login. I wonder if, after distro upgrade, Kontact started before akonadi and the original migration failed because of that
• KWallet was disabled and that created also lots of errors/grief. I ran KWallet from the menu and activated it for use with KDE. After that, password management got smoother (without that, the second migration worked, but I would have to retype each account’s password after each login to KDE)
