Again, please: Akregator is not based on Akonadi. Repeat after me: Akregator is not based on Akonadi. It uses Metakit. Again: Akregator is not based on Akonadi. Consequently in Devuan Akregator does not directly depend on Akonadi while KMail for example depends on Akonadi server and quite a bunch of Akonadi libraries. Akregator does not use Akonadi. It uses Metakit. So please, pretty please stop spreading false myths here. Especially after I clarified on this before. Thank you. KMail, KAddressbook, KOrganizer and others are all using Akonadi, but Akregator has never been ported to use it. I am not sure whether an indirect dependency of Akregator would pull in Akonadi, but if not, it may even be possible to install Akregator *without* installing Akonadi. I did not test it, cause I usually install a whole KDE Plasma session and then I will get Akonadi installed though. And that is why in this constellation in case you do not like to use Akonadi install SQLite3 backend and uninstall MariaDB (in case you do not need it for other purposes). That way an unused Akonadi should be pretty light-weight. On a ThinkPad X1 Tablet for example I do not even notice it in any way. Best, -- Martin
