I could not use Kalarm because for trusty I had this error: Failed to access directory for --secure-file-priv. Please make sure that directory exists and is accessible by MySQL Server. Supplied value : /var/lib/mysql-files
I did: sudo mkdir /var/lib/mysql-files Then I had another error, something along this lines (can't remember exactly) can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/akonadi so I deleted akonadi folders in /home .local and .config and restarted system and Kalarm works.
