Hallo Botond,

I've asked upstream both on IRC and on the mailing list, see below.

(However, if you could try out the patch and it works out, I'm happy to
add this patch in the Debian version)

(For the procedure, I'll wait for your answer and without I will
eventually mark this bug wontfix in a few weeks)

Have a nice weekend!

18:02 < coldtobi> Hallo. I've got a bug report for against drizzle,
bugs.debian.org/740720 . This is about libdrizzle, which on Debian comes
from the drizzle packge and not the one fro here:
https://launchpad.net/libdrizzle. So I've got some questions on it: How
much are those two projects tied together? Is drizzle just using
libdrizzle or is it independent development? If they somehow connected,
is it possible/feasible to sync them again? (Seems that the 
19:58 < LinuxJed_> coldtobi: they are separate projects, both under the
Drizzle umbrella.  libdrizzle 1.0/2.0 are bundled in Drizzle, 5.0/5.1
are separate and have an  incompatible API

libdrizzle was originally separate, then we maintained them in the same
tree (to save dependency hell as we were changing both).

Now, there's a renewed effort focusing on libdrizzle (nicknamed
libdrizzle-redux) and what we should do is make Drizzle link to this
rather than have an in-tree copy (the APIs aren't really changing so
much anymore so this isn't going to cause people dependency heck).
