[arch-general] should kdepim-libkdepim-4.4.10-1 and kdepim-runtime-4.4.10-1 still be on the system with kde 4.6?

yes, kdepim 4.4 series are still used in the official stable kde releases. as 
the new kdepim2 (port to akonadi) still has it's flaws (kmail is soo slow for 
me still). you can try kde-unstable repo, where kdepim is up to the newest 
(beta) version.
