What I do not understand is why a client should be depend on the installation of the corresponding server. It seems to like requiring to install apache to run firefox. Kaddressbook was (what is now in not so clear) a client giving a graphical interface to some address book management technologies. It still connect to an LDAP server (that's my use case) without requiring to install slapd. So I cannot understand why the dependency on the akonadi plugin is forced on all of us. It should be possible to put this in a separate package, avoiding it if the user dos'nt need that.
