Description Brian Evans (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

2018-09-12 17:32:31 UTC

THIS IS A MASS FILING TO ALL PACKAGE WITH A DEPEND ON virtual/mysql

As was announced on the gentoo-dev-announce mailing list[1],
virtual/mysql is no longer viable to depend on providing the client libraries
or the mysql_config tool.

Most uses of DEPEND="virtual/mysql" (or conditionals based upon it) will not
work in the future.

If this package (optionally) depends on libmysqlclient.so* or mysql_config for
building, you will need to have dev-db/mysql-connector-c as the DEPEND/RDEPEND.

If this package (optionally) depends on libmariadb.so* or mariadb_config for
building, you will need to have dev-db/mariadb-connector-c as the
DEPEND/RDEPEND.

If this package requires the server running locally, virtual/mysql is
acceptible for RDEPEND and only in DEPEND when tests demand it.

The rare exception when server only files are required at build time should you
keep a compatible server listed.

After 60 days, roughly mid-October 2018, remaining packages will be forcefully
changed to mysql-connector-c with little or no testing. The server packages
will drop their compatibility DEPEND shortly after.

This still shares its build system with nagios-plugins, and looks for mysql_config at build-time. So I think the right thing to do is replace virtual/mysql with dev-db/mysql-connector-c in (R)DEPEND. Here's what I did in nagios-plugins:

  $ diff nagios-plugins-2.2.1-r[23].ebuild
  14c14
  < KEYWORDS="alpha amd64 ~arm ~arm64 ~hppa ppc ppc64 sparc x86"
  ---
  > KEYWORDS="~alpha ~amd64 ~arm ~arm64 ~hppa ~ppc ~ppc64 ~sparc ~x86"
  28c28
  < 	mysql? ( virtual/mysql )
  ---
  > 	mysql? ( dev-db/mysql-connector-c )
