           Summary: remove central akonadi dependencies
           Product: Akonadi
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Debian unstable
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde-bugs at ginguppin.de


Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.5.3) 
OS:                Linux

i got a netbook which does not and unbder any circumstances use akonadi!
the only application installed and used, that remotely might be related to
akonadi, is kopete -- and that runs very well without.

nevertheless,  i am forced to install akonadi and it's seemingly impossible to
get either rid of it or at least stop it from running and thus using up
valuable resources i have better usesd for than a framework i never touch.

i fail to understand, why a functionality not being vital (neither a semantic
desktop nor address/calendar management are necessary to running kde) is forced
upon users w/o any means to get rid of them.

i wrote a script that mercyless akonadi, nepomuk and all those creeps whenever
they attempt to rear their heads and it doesn't make my system unstable or
unusable -- there may be a lot of people finding akonadi usefull, but there are
probably as many who think it to be a waste of resources.

please, identify those apps _really_ needing akonadi (are there any more than
kdepim?) amd limit the dependencies to those only.

Reproducible: Always
