doing all this only to support yet another embedded database seems like a lot
of hassle for very limited advantages.
Why is a kde user expected to have at least three databases installed on his
system?

There is akonadi which uses mysql
then there is amarok which (currently) uses mysqle but might connect to a real
mysql server in the future
and then there is digikam that has a lot of work being commited to achieve a
setting that is only available "for experts as a matter of linking"
Sorry but this should be easily available.
I'd rather have one database so I only have to dump one to make backups. Not to
talk about the overhead of having different databases running at the same time.

So I kindly ask to reconsider on how this is going to be available &
configurable.
