Since you seem to have SQLite working, I'll focus my efforts on testing, documentation, and bug fixing on that. > On penktadienis 07 Gegužė 2010 01:59:39 Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. wrote: > > I think that KMail requiring MySQL to function in Debian stable is a > > problem.

Really? It was rejected out-of-hand when I suggested using KDEPIM 4.3. Quoting: "Move on. kdepim 4.3 is gone."

I'm not willing to argue feature vs. bug. Having a KMail with a strong dependency on MySQL in a Debian stable release would be a problem, IMO. It is especially onerous likely to only affect KMail from KDE SC 4.4.x and not from earlier or (if progress continues) later releases. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. bss@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
