           Summary: Implement reliable SQLite support
           Product: Akonadi
           Version: 4.6
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kumaran at alumni.stanford.org


Version:           4.6 (using KDE 4.5.95) 
OS:                Linux

The use of MySQL as the database backend causes all sorts of issues on various
configurations, the most significant being NFS home directories.  There are
also memory footprint issues on resource-constrained machines such as netbooks.

In reading the various information on the web, it is unclear why SQLite would
not work for Akonadi.  The previous KResource was operating with only a
file-based backend, so Akonadi should be able to outperform that using SQLite. 
The current MySQL setup is brittle and seems to have poor performance.

What are the open technical issues that are blocking the adoption of SQLite as
the default backend?


Reproducible: Always
