Package: ampache
Version: 3.4.1-2
Severity: major

Hello Maintainer,

according  to   the   Website   <http://ampache.org/wiki/install:debian>
ampache does NOT require the installation of MySQL but  on  my  embedded
i386 System with a 512 MByte NAND  Flash  it  try  to  and  enforce  the
installation of MySQL.  In summary 145 MByte!!!

Please can you correct this crap?

I do not know a singel person which install on its own a MySQL server on
a System connected directly to the Internet.

My current MySQL which I was forced to install for  an  OnlineShop  (now
closed) has 18 grave/rc bugs and I was hacked over MySQL several times.

My PostgresQL (from Debian Lenny and 8.3) is running since 1999 with  an
open SSL port to the internet on a Dual-STM-4 (-> 2 x 622 MBit)  without
being hacked, even if I have several 1000 hack attempts per day.

So, my feature request is to use PostgreSQL and of  course,  remote  SQL
server.  On the website it was write, it is posibel, but it seems I have
to recompile the whole bunch my own because potential security issues in
the Debian version because MySQL.

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
