And that will probably be pretty common, at least on upgrades from lenny, as korganzer depends on akonadi-server which in turn depends on libqt4-sql-mysql in current testing. And korganizer is probably installed by most KDE users. But there's nothing that would pull in libqt4-sql-psql. So being lost with no information about the required packages for other dababase types will probably be very common. The most beautiful way to solve this, at least from the user's point of view, would probably be to show all backends that are available in the repository. If one of the uninstalled backends is selected, the user should just need to enter the root pw to install the backend. AFAIK something like this is done for some (non-free)? codecs when they are needed by totem. WM -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
