[Dovecot] MySQL patch + Debian

[James Tyson]

Hi folks.

Sorry to post here about a patch that hasn't been officially integrated 
into Dovecot, however I am trying to get it going and seem to have hit 
a dead end.

I downloaded the Debianised source for Dovecot (0.99.10-9) from sarge:

> wedge:/usr/local/src# apt-get -t testing source dovecot

then applied the latest MySQL patch that I could find on the list:

> wedge:/usr/local/src/dovecot-0.99.10# cat ../dovecot-mysql.patch | 
> patch -p 2

and manually fixed a merge issue with src/auth/master-connection.c, 
fiddled with the debian changelog to indicate the patch and then used 
dpkg-buildpackage -b to compile the package.

Everything looked to build alright and I grepped the output to make 
sure that it compiled userdb-mysql.o and passdb-mysql.o into 
dovecot-auth.

Problem is that dovecot-auth says "Unknown userdb type 'mysql'" and an 
ldd of /src/auth/dovecot-auth shows no libmysqlclient10:

Anyone know what I'm missing?
