Title: mysql/mariadb under openSuse
Post by: GordonFindlay on May 13, 2021, 10:05:32 am

I have a new installation of openSuse Leap 15.2, which includes mariadb-10.4.17 and Lazarus 2.0.6

I have a existing program which worked under Debian. It uses TSQLConnector 5.7

In openSuse, the program fails as it cannot load the client library: libmysqlclient.so.20 I cannot find this library using Suse repositories.

Any suggestions?

I'm on openSuse tumbleweed and there is libmysqlclient.so only a symbolic link to libmariadb.so.3. This link is installed by the libmariadb-devel package.

The "MySQL 5.7"-connector is working, just as the "MySQL 5.6"-connector.

Many thanks - indeed the symlink was missing, although YAST showed the package installed.
