CqrLog mariadb/mysql

[jarmo]

Upgraded into F27 my test computer. Went smooth like summer day.
Started to test hamradio logging program, cqrlog. It wont start
because of " Error during connection to database: Can not load default
MySQL library ("libmysqlclient.so.16" or "libmysqlclient.so"). Check
your installation."
Mariadb is installed and running....

Tried to find libmysqlclient.so from installation, but couldn't.
Other thing, package CQRLOG is 2.0.5, while there has been version
2.1.0 long time available.

So, which package needs to install, to get missing libmysqlclient.so
installed?

mariadb-libs provides the library.  Current version provides
/usr/lib64/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.18

Ok that, was not there, did dnf reinstall mariadb-libs

I'll send error rprt to cqrlog list, tnx for the startpoint.

You can try mariadb-connector-c [1]

The answer to both the reason that the new version hasn't been built and
why it can't connect to sql  is that I have been unable to build the new
version due to a bug in fpc[2] that has yet to be fixed.

Thanks,
Richard

Yes, I tried that, but no luck....
I solved problem by making symlink from /usr/lib64/mysql/libmariadb.so.3
to /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so.18.
That way I got cqrlog running.

Even there is in /etc/ld.so.conf.d file mariadb-x86_64,conf which has
right path, cqrlog can't find client.
Sould there be libmysqlclient.conf also?

Looks like the pending update of mariadb in bodhi fixes this issue (and many 
others)

Cqrlog starts fine for me now.

Well that's good, but I still can't build the new version until fpc is
fixed...

Thanks,
