No, that works for me, however, the OP mentions KDE4.2 /requiring/ MySQL. And, no it does not require it for every instance. But yes if it is a component you want, it is necessary. But that's splitting hairs. KDE4.2 runs just fine without akonadi, therefor it does not require MySQL. If for whatever reason 4.2 would NOT run fine without MySQL, then I'd agree with you. To me, akonadi is useless and a waste of resources, much like Beagle is on GNOME. But then, to me GNOME is a waste of resources. I'd like to speak to the goon decided on GNOME's latest interface. If anything, GNOME is Linux Vista. It's poorly designed and with no thoughts to whether the end user finds it usable or not. > > As an uninformed observer, the requirement of mysql-server seems over > kill, but it's a 21MB download that only consumes as much resources as > is required at any one time. > -- Frustra laborant quotquot se calculationibus fatigant pro inventione quadraturae circuli Mark Haney Sr. Systems Administrator ERC Broadband (828) 350-2415 Call (866) ERC-7110 for after hours support -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
