Package: akonadi-server Version: 1.3.1-3+b1 I'm running Debian on my netbook, it has 512 mb ram, so every mb is valuable. I can live w/o akonadi features (i don't use them), but it is running in the system anyways, taking up to 80 megs of ram (running mysql server on a netbook is a bit too aggressive i think). Issuing 'apt-get purge akonadi-server' will try to uninstall the following packages: akonadi-server* gdebi-kde* kchart* kde-plasma-desktop* kdebase* kdebase-workspace* kdebase-workspace-bin* kdepim-kresources* kdepim-runtime* kdeplasma-addons* kipi-plugins* kmail* knotes* koffice-libs* kopete* korganizer* krita* libkdepim4* libkopete4* libmessagelist4* plasma-dataengines-workspace* plasma-desktop* plasma-widgets-addons* plasma-widgets-workspace* python-kde4* system-config-printer-kde* the following packages: kde-plasma-desktop* kdebase* kdebase-workspace* kdebase-workspace-bin* plasma-desktop python-kde4 should be usable w/o akonadi running. i was able to remove all akonadi-related packages (except for libraries) in opensuse 10.4, and after that i got latest KDE (4.6) running w/o akonadi (i used 'top' commandline tool to check this), so I believe this is possible for debian too. akonadi-server should be installed with some big metapackage like kde, but the above mentioned packages should be installable w/o akonadi

Hello! apt-rdepends can give us some answers here. If you run apt-rdepends --reverse akonadi-server | less you will see that kdepim-runtime and kpilot depend on it. Perhaps it would be simpler with [0]. So the most probable thing is that you installed a meta package like kde- standard or kde-full. If that's the case, you automatically installed kmail and friends, and so installing it's dependencies... falling into akonadi- server. If you want to do an install without akonadi-server, in first place avoid installing kde with metapckages, and then install whatever is necessary for your setup, excluding packages that depend on kdepim-runtime [1] and do not install kpilot. So, this is possible in Debian, but not using metapackages. I am therefore closing this bug, as it's just a matter of installing things "nitpicking" packages. Feel free to reopen it if you find a packaging bug. Kinds regards, Lisandro. [0] Just for being more "graphicall", you can get a nice chart with: apt-rdepends --reverse --dotty akonadi-server | dot -Tpng -Gsize="100,100"> akonadi-server.png [1] apt-rdepends kdepim-runtime will give you a hand on that. -- Lisandro Damián Nicanor Pérez Meyer http://perezmeyer.com.ar/ http://perezmeyer.blogspot.com/Attachment: signature.asc
