Description dch 2012-02-07 16:37:58 UTC 
Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.7.4) 
OS:                Linux

Akonadi returns utter nonsensical hyperbole about the dangers of running as root and refuses to run. I have been using KDE since at least RH 9. If I want to run as root that is my responsibility - not KDE's. It should not be KDE's position to make me run MY computer the way that some developer thinks that I should run MY computer. Wanna warn me? Fine. Require? I'll switch back to Gnome.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
Not applicable

Actual Results:  
not applicable

Expected Results:  
Should be able to run as root

It's a limitation of MySQL, which Akonadi uses internally.
