Package: libmyodbc Version: 3.51.11-5 Severity: important libmyodbc depends on libmysqlclient12. This version is too old for some purposes. For example when connecting with DataArchitect from thekompany (a commercial database modelling application) to a mysql4.1 database, an error occurs, saying that the mysql client version is too old for the used authentication mechanism:
"Client does not support authentication protocol requested by server; consider upgrading MySQL client" I've compiled libmyodbc using libmysqlclient14 instead of libmysqlclient12 and now this error is gone. So there are should be packages for libmysqlclient14 and libmysqlclient15, too. Maybe it would be enough to depend on _any_ version of libmysqlclient (then there should be a meta-package of libmysqlclient), but I do not know whether this would lead to other incompatibilities. However, in the current situation the only available libmyodbc package is not usable with the mysql4.1 package available in Debian.
