I got a complaint from a FreeBSD user that they couldn't compile dovecot against MySQL 8.0.
Is MySQL 8.0 support with 2.3.4?
they receive: 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 "/wrkdirs/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!
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:

So, yes, it's supported!
