           Summary: Cannot backup akonadi when using Postgres database
                    backend
           Product: Akonadi
           Version: 4.4
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: vkrause at kde.org

Version:            (using KDE 4.4.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

I'm using KDE 4.4.0 with akonadi-server-1.3.1 using Postgres as database
backend.  That works pretty good as far as I can tell, but I cannot make
backups of my data, which makes me a bit nervous.

When I click the akonadi tray icon and say "Make backup..." I get a message
that mysqldump or bzip2 are not installed.  bzip2 is installed, mysqldump not,
but surely mysqldump is not the right tool for dumping postgres databases. 
Here you want to use the pg_dump tool, and that is installed.

I guess that the postgres support is not completely ready right now.  If that's
the case, take this report as feature request.
