[Akonadi] [Bug 264383] akonadiserver uses ~/.my.cnf dangerously

--- Comment #10 from Simon Williams <simon at systemparadox.co.uk> ---
That is indeed the case for the mysqld process launched by Akonadi. But to be
extra clear, this only applies to the *SERVER* process. The whole point of this
bug is that Akonadi isn't using it's own server process because any *CLIENT*
connections it creates are incorrectly reading ~/.my.cnf.

I suspect that --defaults-file should fix the problem. However, this bug is NOT
specific to mysqlcheck. *ALL* client processes must use --defaults-file
*WITHOUT FAIL* in order to solve this problem.

Please be aware that if Akonadi access the database in any other manner (for
example, using libmysqlclient directly) that will also have to be guaranteed to
not use ~/.my.cnf.
