@Jack: maybe we can add a chapter 'Moving KMyMoney to another computer' to the docs in case we don't have it in there yet.

I did manage to find an old email in my KMM folder, and besides my *.kmy files, there is the configuration file as follows:
> $KDEHOME/share/config/kmymoneyrc

That's all you need. There shouldn't be any gotchas in upgrading from 4.6.1 to 4.6.3 (though 4.6.4 is the latest stable release we did a few weeks ago). Once 4.6.4 hits the distro repositories that shouldn't be a problem either.

Thomas,

I'm finally working on the docs for the new release, and have one question here. Are there any potential reasons NOT to move the rc file and just reconfigure the new version from scratch? Are there any potential dangers due to changed format/version/entries?

(Alan - I will also include mention of the two csv rc files.)

I also intend to mention that there may be some items stored by KDE and not KMM, such as any passwords stored in kwallet. Migration of such things is beyond the scope of this manual, and should be addressed at the level of migrating your entire KDE setup, but most of such items are stored under $HOME/.kde4.
