I am happily using postfix: [ebuild R ] mail-mta/postfix-2.2.10 USE="ipv6 mailwrapper pam ssl -cdb -hardened -ldap -mbox -mysql -nis -postgres -sasl (-selinux) -vda" 0 kB but if I try to rebuild it with USE=mysql I get: hppa2.0-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -DHAS_PCRE -DHAS_MYSQL -I/usr/include/mysql -DUSE_TLS -DDEF_DAEMON_DIR=\"/usr/lib/postfix\" -DDEF_MANPAGE_DIR=\"/usr/share/man\" -DDEF_README_DIR=\"/usr/share/doc/postfix-2.2.10/readme\" -DDEF_HTML_DIR=\"/usr/share/doc/postfix-2.2.10/html\" -g -O2 -pipe -march=2.0 -I. -I../../include -DLINUX2 -o master master.o master_conf.o master_ent.o master_sig.o master_avail.o master_spawn.o master_service.o master_status.o master_listen.o master_vars.o master_wakeup.o master_flow.o ../../lib/libglobal.a ../../lib/libutil.a -Wl,-z,now -L/usr/lib -lpcre -lcrypt -lpthread -lpam -lmysqlclient -lm -lz -lssl -lcrypto -ldb -lnsl -lresolv /usr/lib/gcc/hppa2.0-unknown-linux-gnu/4.1.1/../../../../hppa2.0-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [master] Error 1 make: *** [update] Error 1 !!!

FYI, changing line 167 of postfix-2.2.10.ebuild from: mylibs="${mylibs} -lmysqlclient -lm -lz" to: mylibs="${mylibs} -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient -lm -lz" changes the error in this one (seems it compiled OK this time?): >>> Install postfix-2.2.10 into /var/tmp/portage/postfix-2.2.10/image/ category mail-mta bin/postconf: error while loading shared libraries: libmysqlclient.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory [lots of this 'cannot open' errors] postfix-install: Error: "" should be "no" or an absolute path name. !!!

Today I found mysql-5.0.26-r2 marked stable, upgrading to -r2 solves this problem. Now postfix compiles and works ok with mysql. I noted that mysql-5.0.26-r1 just puts its libs in /usr/lib/mysql/, while -r2 also puts symlinks in /usr/lib. mysql-5.0.26-r1 is b0rked, afaik, but it isn't in portage anymore. I think this qualifies as a fix for this bug.
