jperkin: Is there a reason why p5-DBD-percona80 vanished from trunk?

So zlib is the error? "Can't link/include C library 'zlib', aborting."

has it only just disappeared? it hasn't been updated in ages, and that kind of error wouldn't normally just suddenly start happening

would only be explained by some intermediary somehow losing -lz in a pkg-config or something

will fix it anyway

The problem is that I depend on it for a script creating tables fpr zabbix mysql. Tried cpanm DBD::mysql and this failed too with the same error. But I have no idea wha, cause zlib is installed.

will take a swing at updating percona too, usually get them all up-to-date ready for the next Q4

default continues to be mariadb and nia already updated those to the latest this week

jperkin: Thx, that would we great!

we=be

will also add that to the required pkgs list so it won't disappear again

jperkin: Thx!

jperkin: Tried to build it in the meantime with: cpanm DBD::mysql --configure-args="--libs='-L/opt/local/lib -R/opt/local/lib -lz -lssl -lcrypto -lperconaclient'" but this failed with the error "Can't link/include C library 'perconaclient', aborting.". Strange cause libperconaclient is in /opt/local/lib. Do you have an idea how to fix it?

you'd need to check the log for the actual error

This comes out of the build log and was the only error, so strange.

if the log contains the actual command used then you could re-run it manually to see what errors you get

"can't link, aborting" on its own is pretty much useless

ok, thx, will try to figure out the compile commands

jperkin: fetched the package from cpan, tried perl Makefile.PL which failed; then created the Makefile without -lperconaclient: perl Makefile.PL -v --libs="-L/opt/local/lib -lmysqllient -lz -lssl -lcrypto -lresolv -lnsl -lm" --cflags="-I/opt/local/include/mysql"; did gmake to get the compile and linker output and rerun the linker script, this time with adding -lperconaclient. So strange…

Installed it with gmake install and it is working now.

yeh odd, I'll see if I get anything more useful when I build it in pkgsrc, the advantage I have is that all compiler commands are wrapped and logged so I can see exactly what it's trying to do

I just updated percona to 8.0.39 and retried p5-DBD-mysql and it built fine, so maybe they had something broken in their .pc or something

will see for certain in the next build

jperkin: Thx a lot! will try it as soon as available in trunk :-)
