Public bug reported:

This follows on from bug 418342.

Currently, it is impossible to use MySQL 5.0 when running kde in Karmic.
This is because akonadi-server requires mysql-server-core-5.1, which
conflicts with mysql-server-core-5.0 (and subsequently mysql-
server-5.1).

As advised from bug 418342, simply allowing akonadi-server to depend on
mysql-server-core does not work, as binaries linked to the 5.1 libraries
do not work when the 5.0 libraries are installed. The only recommended
solution is to allow both to be installed at the same time.

In addition, this would seem to be a desirable goal anyway. For example,
it would be entirely reasonable for a developer to want to test against
both versions of the server locally.

But the akonadi/mysql-5.0 conflict will I suspect be something of a
showstopper for many developers.
