No, the default is akonadi-backend-mysql, which is also the first to be installed if no "backends" are installed already: $ apt-cache show akonadi-server Package: akonadi-server Depends: [...], akonadi-backend-mysql (= 1.7.2-1) | akonadi-backend- sqlite (= 1.7.2-1) | akonadi-backend-postgresql (= 1.7.2-1) Can you please paste the results of $ dpkg -l '*akonadi*' | grep ^ii $ dpkg -l '*mysql*' | grep ^ii ? > Is there any possibility at all that the packaging for Akonadi can, > by default, use the sqllite backend?

As said above, it is not. > When you start pulling > in mysql, things start getting complicated as even mysql won't work > unless you configure usernames and passwords and such. akonadi-backend-mysql depends only on the mysql server , without the init scripts not other system-wide setup (including global passwords). Also note that this bug (#580706) is turning into a black hold of different issues, and merging #686147 with this was not a good move and has been reverted. -- Pino Toscano
