media-sound/amarok-1.4.6_pre20070608-r1 has the possibility to has a collection of music and several data related stored. You can choose between MySQL **OR** SQLite in order to save and manage that collection's data. The matter is that there is a 'mysql' IUSE in this ebuild wich compile MySQL dependencies to manage collection, and thus, make SQLite not needed, but this ebuild try to install SQLite anyway, without looking at mysql IUSE. I think this must be revised because of the *OR* I mentioned before. Thanks Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.USE="... mysql" emerge media-sound/amarok-1.4.6_pre20070608-r1 2. 3.

I don't know how to make ebuilds, but the possible (conceptual) workarround would be: (In amarok ebuild): RDEPEND="kde? ( || ( kde-base/konqueror kde-base/kdebase ) ) >=media-libs/xine-lib-1.1.2_pre20060328-r8 >=media-libs/taglib-1.4 mysql? ( >=virtual/mysql-4.0 ) **ELSE** >=dev-db/sqlite-${SQLITEVER}" (....) Note that that **ELSE** is conceptual, I don't know if in ebuild's language is a else, or a || or whatever :)
You can use either bundled sqlite, or shared sqlite using --without-bundled-sqlite configure option. Bundled stuff sucks for more than one reason (such as security), so it's been switched to shared. Interesting that you didn't complain before despite the fact that amarok installed its own sqlite. Anyway, nothing to be done here, sqlite DB backend is not optional, otherwise amarok won't be compiled - so what you are suggesting is not possible.
