@mysql: is that libmysqlclient on purpose installed like that? If so, how is an application to find out how to link correctly?
How are you getting your MySQL libraries? You should be invoking: # mysql_config --libs The install location for the library is correct at /usr/$(get_libdir)/mysql/
> You should be invoking: > # mysql_config --libs > # mysql_config --libs -Wl,-O1 -Wl,--as-needed -rdynamic -L/usr/lib64/mysql -lmysqlclient -L/usr//lib -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm -L/usr/lib/ -lssl -lcrypto # And I get the same output in systems, with mysql installed instead of mariadb. Dovecot, PHP, and many other packages, that require mysql, build successfully with mariadb, I've got troubles only with mail-mta/exim. BTW # cd /usr/lib64/ # ln -s mysql/libmysqlclient.so.16.0.0 /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so is enough to build exim with mariadb successfully, no other symlinks are needed.
I'm almost sure that this happens to Exim, because it doesn't call mysql-config, but just blindly assumes -lmysqlclient. I think we can call mysql-config and add it's -L stuff to the LDFLAGS within the ebuild.
This was probably caused by the update done to the mysql_fx eclass to address bug 348788 that broke mysql_lib_symlinks. I've fixed it now. In any case, apps building against mysql should use "mysql_config --libs" to determine the directory where libs are installed
@grobian: The mysql team fixed this already, so closing. please reopen if the problem persists on new mysql installs.
thanks!
