Since 16.04.3-4 it's a transitional package, and the binaries were moved to the akonadi-server package. That dependency is fine.

Is this reall necessar? I mean it' just a librar package and probably shouldn't force one to install yet another daemon just beacuse some other package depends on it.

In my case I just use digikam, not even in a KDE but Cinnamon desktop env,… digikam depends on digikam-private-libs which in turn depends on libkf5akonadicontact5 which in turn depends on libkf5akonadicore-bin which now pulls in the server.

The problem here is that we used to inject the -bin dependency whenever you linked against libkf5akonadicore, this is no longer needed, and the dependency injection is no longer there in the current version, but, since the dependency injection happends at build time, this needs a rebuild of kf5-kdepimlibs for the binary packages to drop the -bin dependency.

Happy hacking,
