If you want to build the embedded mysql server (libmysqld), which
you will need if you plan to (re)build amarok, then run the script
with EMBEDDED=yes in the environment, but be aware that because

+Note that the default storage engine for InnoDB tables in MariaDB is
+XtraDB. If you want to use Oracle's InnoDB plugin, read the notes
+in rc.mysqld.
