Package: rmysql Version: 0.10.13-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu bionic ubuntu-patch
Hi Dirk, As discussed at <https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2016/09/msg00000.html>, packages in Debian should build-depend on default-libmysqlclient-dev, not directly on either libmariadb-dev or libmysqlclient-dev. Part of the reasoning for this is to allow downstreams to make different decisions about their "supported" implementations of MySQL. The attached patch which implements this also fixes a build failure of rmysql in Ubuntu, which appears to be an incompatibility between rmysql and mariadb-connector-c version 3.0.3. Since mariadb *is* the default mysql in Debian, this won't help for any build failure there, but nevertheless appears to be a correct change. Thanks, -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
