Hi Doug,

I'll speak for databases/akonadi only.
It already uses "USE_MYSQL=	server", which brings only run dependency on 
mysql-server. However akonadi checks for mysql binary at configure stage and 
therefore I've added databases/mysql${MYSQL_VER}-server to the list of build 
dependencies.  As a temporary solution I can add "embedded" to USE_MYSQL 
instead hardcoding mysql-server port.
