But I'm quite sure that it is not these source code changes that somehow fixed the problem on Debian. The library and the drivers were tested on various systems at release time, among them David Parker's Debian box. The driver did work for sure at release time. I rather suspect that the driver is incompatible with the current version of libmysqlclient. > > I suggest rebuilding the package using recent versions of libmysqlclient. > > What version do you mean: of the libmysqlclient12 or the > libmysqlclient14 package? > I've been testing things on a box that ran MySQL 4.1, therefore I used the libmysqlclient14 package. The current CVS code contains a lot of functionality related to character encodings. I guess that libmysqlclient12 would not work anyway. I've fixed the stuff in the debian subdirs of both libdbi and libdbi-drivers. If you check out the current CVS version you should be able to build the packages without any hassles on a Debian testing box. However, I did not change the package version numbers as I simply don't know how to do this. Remember that you will need the CVS versions of both libdbi and libdbi-drivers. The current CVS version drivers won't work with the packaged library and vice versa. Please see my orignal post for the relevant package versions. If you have any further questions, please contact me anytime. However, I can access my Debian box only on weekends as it is located elsewhere. regards, Markus -- Markus Hoenicka [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Spam-protected email: replace the quadrupeds with "mhoenicka") http://www.mhoenicka.de -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
