mauricev Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 I wanted to have an overlay for mysql-community to take advantage of all the current bugfixes, 8.0.19, but there's a problem. mysql-community pulls in mysql-connector-c and at same time installs the very files that mysql-connector-c installs. So in order to make this work, I had to manually remove mysql-connector-c. Is there a way I can remove the dependency on mysql-connector-c? The ebuild is confusing.

mauricev Posted April 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 I traced it down to virtual/libmysqlclient, which has a dependency for mysql-connector-c. What's still not clear is how to get mysql-community-8.0.19 to not provide the files belonging to mysql-connector-c. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauricev Posted April 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2020 It turns out there appears to be a cmake patch that somehow edits out the mysql-connector-c stuff. I put all the correct patches back in from the gentoo (mysql) build and now all is well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
