Description Kurt Lieber (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2003-09-23 07:51:29 UTC 
The current cacti ebuild (0.8.3) requires mysql to be installed on the local
machine.  This is incorrect.  While cacti does require access to a mysql
database, it *does not* have to be installed on a local machine and can just as
easily connect to a mysql server on another machine.

The rdepend on mysql should be removed and/or added as an optional USE dependency.

mostly all of our webapps could run on not-local mysql server
