is all this suppose to mean that there is no way for amarok rpm without

available for now?
Why not just grab the source RPM and modify the spec file to make sure Amarok is
not built with the MySQL requirement (I'm guessing it's a configure flag, which
you'll find in the spec) ?

2. Amarok source RPM.
You might have to install certain build-dependencies (-devel packages
w/dependencies). These can easily be installed with yum.
And for a slightly more "political" reply, I think one should have a very large
music collection to justify the need for MySQL when there is sqlite. But then
again, it's only the client libs, in this case.
