Bug#526475: ampache does install 145 MByte including MySQL on an Embedded System
[...snip] Maybe I hit a but in apt-get because: [ '/etc/apt/apt.conf' ]- APT::Get::Install-Recommendsfalse; APT::Get::Purge true; APT::Get::Fix-Brokentrue; APT::Get::Show-Upgraded true; APT::CDROM::Rename true; Acquire::cdrom::mount /media/cdrom; This is working on my workstation, but not on my Embedded System. Could be that you have found a bug in apt-get? If you feel you have please report it. [...snip] I do not know/understand WHY all peoples relaying on MySQL, where since ages the problems are well known. Maybe they use the better/louder publicity like Debian/Ubuntu. :-/ http://ampache.org/bugs/ticket/446 Yes, but I am very angry about the MySQL stuff.. The way I look at it, it is a matter of choice. You prefer postgres and ampaches lead developer prefers mysql. Please leave your political, and flame war invoking statements off the BTS as this is not the place for them. You would be better severed by raising your concerns about mysql on debian-dev Maybe he or we can look at PHP-PDO which then would be DB independant. I'm sure if you approached ampaches lead developer in a more civilized manner, he would probably be more than willing to explore the possibilities of PHP-PDO with you.

Bug#526475: ampache does install 145 MByte including MySQL on an Embedded System
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.

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

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.

In summary 145 MByte!!! Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Indeed mysql-server is in the Recommends field of debian/control, I will demote mysql-server to the Suggests field in Ampache-3.5 which is due to be released in the coming weeks. You should be able to use the --no-install-recommends option with apt-get to prevent the installation of mysql-server. I do not know a singel person which install on its own a MySQL server on a System connected directly to the Internet. Having Ampache not install mysql-server was actually suggested by the DD who sponsors this package. IMHO mysql-server upgrades should be done by a system admin and not by a maintainer script. 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. Hopefully these will be resolved soon. 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.

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. I would forward your request to the upstream developer, however it seems that you have already contacted the upstream developer about this feature request already. http://ampache.org/bugs/ticket/446 Best regards Charlie signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
