akonadi 1.3.90 new upstream version

[bjoern.ricks@…]

A new version of Akonadi is released.

The diff includes a patch that adds ${prefix}/share to the XDG_DATA_DIR search path of akonadi. Also after activating/removing akonadi update-mime-database must be called because akonadi installs a new set of mime types.

depends_run-append path:bin/mysql5:mysql5-server

The mysql5-server port does not provide ${prefix}/bin/mysql5; the mysql5 port does. Does akonadi require a MySQL server running on the same computer? If not (i.e. if a MySQL server running on another computer would be sufficient) then the dependency should be on the mysql5 port, not on the mysql5-server port.

The previous version of the port was 1.3.1. Is 1.3.90 really a stable version? Or is it a development version leading up to a stable 1.4.0 release? If it is a development version, we should not update the port to this version.

I suppose that mysql5 port should be sufficient (I had in mind that I already changed that ...). Akonadi needs a running MySQL server instance per user. It's possible to use also a sqlite backend but it's highly experimental. It's known that the sqlite backend can cause a deadlog with kmail. Therefore MySQL is still the default database for Akonadi.

You are right. 1.3.90 is meant as something like 1.4.0 RC. 1.4.0 will be released together with kde sc 4.5 in a month. Feel free to close this ticket. I am going to provide a new patch if the new stable version is released.
