Maybe someone can help me out with MySQL's commercial license.

If MySQL server has a GPL license and MySQL client libraries have LGPL licenses, how 
can a paid commercial license be required for products that incorporate LGPL MySQL 
client libraries and depend on the GPL MySQL server?  Does this not violate the GPL 
and LGPL license terms?  

MySQL commercial applications should be similar to Linux commercial applications that 
use the LGPL Linux shared libraries and depend on the GPL Linux OS.  No Linux paid 
license can be required in this case.  However, the developer can charge for the 
commercial application in this case.
