As in summary, this is sad that such careless bumps not checked for upstream requirements. 1.1.8 will need mysql-connector-c-6.1.8 or newer: "You must use either a General Availability version of MySQL 5.7 (5.7.9 or higher) or Connector/C 6.1.8 or higher. Set the MYSQL_DIR CMake option appropriately at configuration time as necessary."

Restricted version of mysql-connector-c which fails to compile under a certain version. MariaDB and MySQL 5.6 were patched to work and compile fine
This is not properly fixed, mysql-connector-c-1.1.8 is still not in the tree and instead of a build failure we now are greeted with a unresolvable blocker. The proper solution was to also mask mysql-connector-c++-1.1.8 until the equivalent C connector version was added.
