Bug description:
After yesterday 15 sept. upgrade to Kubuntu 16.10 Yakkety Yak, kmail
fails to start, because akonadi backend fails.
Starting akonadi from command line,
$ akonadictl start
the output contains:
stderr: "mysqld: Error on realpath() on '/var/lib/mysql-files' (Error 2 -
No such file or directory)\n2016-10-16T11:54:23.365277Z 0 [Warning] The syntax

--secure-file-priv. Please make sure that directory exists and is accessible by

Aborting\n\n2016-10-16T11:54:23.365508Z 0 [Note] Binlog end\n"
The cause is a regression in the file
/etc/xdg/akonadi/mysql-global.conf
provided by the package
akonadi-backend-mysql
Diff of the content of mysql-global.conf from Yakkety vs Xenial:
<code>

Applying this patch fixes the bug.
The "secure_file_priv" setting went missing is referenced in the package
changelog:
akonadi (4:15.12.3-0ubuntu5) xenial; urgency=medium
* kubuntu_disable_secure_file_priv_check.diff:
- Set secure_file_priv to empty as that directory is not set in a default
kubuntu install
