Description Thorsten Staerk 2009-09-20 16:18:39 UTC 
Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

Every time when I start my KDE I get an obfuscating message about akonadi being started and then a status report. I have to click once more to get rid of that window. Please do not show it.

The "status report" is likely the self-test error report, ie. it detected a problem on your system. That's certainly not something we want to remove.

Regarding the start-up progress message, that's up to the application using Akonadi if they want to show it or not. And btw, you reported that one already in bug 178551.

Oh, yes, bug 178551 was the one I was looking for. Thanks.
Comment 3 Thorsten Staerk 2009-09-28 11:37:58 UTC 
Akonadi depends on mysql server? Is that really so? You need to open a database server with all its vulnerabilities in order to start a PIM application?

I would like to re-open this bug, but I think flamewars do not belong here.
Comment 4 Volker Krause 2009-09-28 13:07:59 UTC 
For all the currently released versions of the Akonadi server MySQL is indeed the only option. Besides installing the mysqld binary there is nothing to set up, access is limited to the current session. Please see http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/PIM/Akonadi#Akonadi_FAQ for more information.
