OK, may be my poor understanding: I use PostgreSQL very much with 
different databases, so "my PostgreSQL-server" is running almost 
full-time. In the past I understood from this list, that usage of 
PostgreSQL for Akonadi is the better choice. So _my approach_ was to 
have one server only, for "my usage" and for Akonadi.

Actually (on older hardware) my PostgreSQL-installation has two databases:

  * postgres (the standard one) with scheme public,
  * myDB with several (personal) schemes and public.

My approach for the new setup: Transfer both and add a new one 
"Akonadi".  The reasons for _my understanding_: Less processes running, 
less installation, less update, configuration easier to understand. But: 
If it's preferable have two servers and you recommend this, it can be 
done but I have to understand the install (how to get the PackageManager 
to install the installed package PostgreSQL again?) and update-processes 
for both.

Which solution is your recommendation:
A: One PostgreSQL-installation, three databases: postgres, myDB, Akonadi.
B: One PostgreSQL-installation, two databases: postgres, myDB; let 
Akonadi use postgres.
C: Two PostgreSQL-installations:
C1: Two databases: postgres, myDB;
C2: postgres OR Akonadi for Akonadi

Let's decide this question first!
I've seen, that you already answered my To-Do-list (your mail 18:09 h); 
may be, we can update this after the decision?

Thank you and regards, Michael
