So, I have upgraded all my ports and that came with mysql-8.0.13.
Now I am unable to build dovecot from the FreeBSD-12 ports:


checking for mysql_config... mysql_config
checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no
configure: error: Can't build with MySQL support: libmysqlclient not found
===>  Script "configure" failed unexpectedly.
Please report the problem to ler@FreeBSD.org [maintainer] and attach the
"/usr/ports/mail/dovecot/work/dovecot-2.3.4/config.log" including the output
of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be a good idea to provide
an overview of all packages installed on your system (e.g. a
/usr/local/sbin/pkg-static info -g -Ea).
*** Error code 1

Thanks, Aki.  I've passed that information along to the FreeBSD port maintainer for MySQL.

I'll be back if I need more help or when it's solved.

Apologies for earlier empty email, butterfingers me...

anyways, found this in the logs which seems to explain problems:


/usr/bin/ld: error: unable to find library -limported_openssl /usr/bin/ld: error: unable to find library -limported_crypto cc: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Any way you could check config.log ?

I tried earlier today using latest version offered in Oracle repos for
8.0, and was able to compile dovecot. I can revisit the issue though.

It appears the issue is MySQL 8.0.13 apparently(?) removed the mysql_init

poudriere logs:
the first build is 8.0.12, the 2nd is 8.0.13.
Can the dovecot guys look as well? I've sent a note to the MySQL
maintainer for FreeBSD as well.
Thanks.

Is MySQL 8.0 support with 2.3.4?

I recently installed FreeBSD-12 and installed MySQL-8.0 and build
dovecot-2.3.4 against it.
Well, I tried to do ldd /usr/local/sbin/dovecot to see what it's build
against, but it shows different
output than what I see when I do the same against my Exim. Maybe it's a
gcc vs clang issue, but
root@gw:/usr/home/wash # uname -msrsv
FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE r341666 GENERIC amd64
root@gw:/usr/home/wash # mysql --version
mysql Ver 8.0.12 for FreeBSD12.0 on amd64 (Source distribution)
root@gw:/usr/home/wash # strings /usr/local/sbin/dovecot | grep SQL
SQL drivers: mysql postgresql sqlite
In the output you've given, let's just say the issue is that there is
no libmysqlclient.so.21 in the standard INCLUDE path..
I have just extracted dovecot-2.3.4 into a directory and did:
./configure --with-mysql=yes
The output is:
-----------8<------------
checking for mysql_config... mysql_config
checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... yes
checking mysql.h usability... yes
checking mysql.h presence... yes
checking for mysql.h... yes
checking for mysql_ssl_set in -lmysqlclient... yes
----------8<--------------
