The MySQL driver is not distributed from apache.org due to licensing issues.
If you wish to build the driver, download apr_dbd_mysql.c from http://apache.webthing.com/database/ and copy it into the dbd directory. Now run buildconf, followed by configure. It is distributed under the GPL to conform with MySQL License terms This means it cannot be distributed from apache.org, as that would violate ASF policy. Using the driver with APR and Apache is of course allowed, and there is no problem with a third party bundling the driver, provided you respect both the ASF and GPL licenses. http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/apr/apr- util/trunk/INSTALL.MySQL?view=markup&pathrev=371029 I suppose that last paragraph can be read as a permission to ship the MySQL DBD driver? -- gutsy does not have a working apache+mysql authentication solution https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/150651 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
