That case should be handled, akonadi.spec packaging includes:

%package mysql
Summary: Akonadi MySQL backend support
# upgrade path
Obsoletes: akonadi < 1.7.90-2
Requires: %{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release}
...

which means, anyone with akonadi prior to 1.7.90-2 installed, should get 
akonadi-mysql pulled in on upgrade.
