hi Gilles,

actually yes, and the text was indeed fairly clear once I had understood the
concept ;-)

I think what confused me was the introduction about mariadb and MySQL. I was
somehow assuming this would apply both to internal and external servers,
making me think that I'd have to set up the internal server myself as well
(so to have a choice between mariadb and MySQL).
Maybe it would help to add the explanation from Maik's last post to the "The
MySQL Internal Server" section ("Do not confuse the internal server with a
local MySQL server. The local MySQL server is set up just as a remote one,
with localhost or 127.0.0.1 as the address. The internal server in digiKam
launches another SQL server on your computer, which will also be stopped
when you exit digiKam.")
