Hey,

do you have apparmor enabled? Maybe the Apparmor profile does not match
anymore. Can you give it a try with aa-disable postgresql_akonadi?

I have akonadi-backend-postgresql and apparmor enabled and it is working for
me. I only have PostgreSQL 12 though.
https://lists.debian.org/debian-kde/2019/11/msg00000.html shows the way I
upgraded to PSQL 12 (and purged PSQL 11)

If you have both, but didn't upgrade your cluster (ie transfer your akonadi
database to PSQL 12) and rebooted, then I think PSQL 12 uses the default PSQL
port. If you didn't change your config, then akonadi is asking PSQL 12 for its
data, but it can't find it.
That could be an explanation why it isn't working for Vincent-Xavier.

control: severity -1 important

Hey,

I'm lowering the severity, as this package is not unfit for testing. It was
used for serveral moths in experimental, where people used also Postgresql
backend without any issues.
