Description Frédéric "LpSolit" Buclin 2011-06-03 15:52:28 CEST 
While running checksetup.pl from Bugzilla, DBD::mysql fails with this error message:

/usr/bin/perl: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.3/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so: undefined symbol: is_prefix

It looks like this error also affects Mandriva Cooker (2011.0), see https://qa.mandriva.com/show_bug.cgi?id=62653

guillomovitch proposed a fix there. It would be great to offer the fix for Mageia too.

Comment 2 John Balcaen 2011-06-03 18:16:47 CEST 
Maybe we should also review (for cauldron) also the use of a specific libmysql.version & use the one provided by upstream ?

Comment 4 John Balcaen 2011-06-15 17:30:31 CEST 
Hum should we add a subrel or simply increase mkrel for update?
Comment 5 Ahmad Samir 2011-06-15 18:49:39 CEST 
Add a subrel. (and if updating to a whole new version of a package, make %mkrel 0, and bump subrel), not sure if the page in the mdv bugzilla explaining that process has been imported or not yet...
Comment 6 Anne Nicolas 2011-06-15 21:02:46 CEST 
Tested here on a Mageia server. Previous mysql prevented to upgrade Sympa. This is now solved
