Public bug reported: This perl package specifically is for accessing MariaDB. However, it's .so file links against libmysqlclient (in Ubuntu 20: libmysqlclient.so.21), and not against libmariadb.so.3, and thus depends on libmysqlclient21 (and not libmariadb3). Note that this is correct in Debian (as you can see here: https://packages.debian.org/buster/libdbd- mariadb-perl - the same is true for all other linked releases of Debian).
This can be fixed by changing the Build-Depends (from default- libmysqlclient-dev (>= 1.0.5) to libmariadb-dev-compat, and from default-mysql-server to mariadb-server). ** Affects: libdbd-mariadb-perl (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1971711 Title: Links against libmysqlclient.so.21, not libmariadb.so.3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdbd-mariadb-perl/+bug/1971711/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
