This version no longer exists in newer versions of mysql-connector-c. It turns out that mysql-connector-c++ has hard-coded references to this library but since we don't install compatibility symlinks this hardcoded reference will fail.

Created attachment 762936 [details, diff] mysql-connector-c++-mysqlclient_r.patch mysql-workbench has been stuck on an old version of mysql-connector-c++ because newer versions would not work correctly as they would try to load the obsolete libmysqlclient_r library. This version no longer exists in newer versions of mysql-connector-c. It turns out that mysql-connector-c++ has hard-coded references to this library but since we don't install compatibility symlinks this hardcoded reference will fail. With the attached patch mysql-workbench no longer fails to connect to databases when using mysql-connector-c++.
