Subject: Re: ports/160277: [PATCH] databases/akonadi: Make MySQL dependency 
optional
Date: Mon, 29 Aug 2011 20:46:51 +0200

 Hi,
 
  What does "at the moment" mean? The current port (akonadi-1.6.0)
 seems to support sqlite just fine.
 I think requiring a full-blown mysql server for each desktop user is a
 bit too much for the stuff that akonadi does (mostly caching, if I
 understand correctly), so I was very happy that I could enable the
 sqlite backend in the port.
 
 Even if sqlite is really dead in the upcoming releases, I'd still
 prefer an optional ("embedded") mysql in the port, as personally I'd
 rather configure a separate postgres instance than running mysql
 (personal preference, I know).
 
 cheers,
 mitch
