I’m using Homebrew to install Dovecot on Mojave, but have to modify the formula to add ‘--with-mysql’.
Unfortunately compiling always fails with:
checking for mysql_config... NO checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no configure: error: Can't build with MySQL support: libmysqlclient not found
I added:
ENV['LD']="-L/usr/local/opt/mysql@5.7/lib"
to the ‘def install’ section of the formula, but it still fails.
config.log shows:
… KRB5_LIBS='' LD='-L/usr/local/opt/mysql@5.7/lib/' LDAP_LIBS=‘' …
And mysqlclient is here:
$ locate mysqlclient /usr/local/Cellar/mysql@5.7/5.7.24/lib/libmysqlclient.20.dylib /usr/local/Cellar/mysql@5.7/5.7.24/lib/libmysqlclient.a /usr/local/Cellar/mysql@5.7/5.7.24/lib/libmysqlclient.dylib /usr/local/Cellar/mysql@5.7/5.7.24/lib/pkgconfig/mysqlclient.pc
I changed the formula to:
ENV['LD']="-L/usr/local/Cellar/mysql@5.7/5.7.24/lib/“
And still get the same thing.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
James.
