Security updates are not supposed to break library interfaces, and if they do, they must be coordinated in a way to protect users against breakage of this sort. But anyway, as discussed on IRC, it'd really be good to confirm that this bug does *not* manifest on the same system when using the pre-security-update version of libmysqlclient12. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
