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? ----[ 'apt-get install ampache' ]--------------------------------------- Reading package lists...

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.
