Bug #80353 [NEW]: Impossible to compile PHP 8 with libmysqlclient.

From: oliver at erply dot com Operating system: Centos 7 PHP version: 8.0.0RC4 Package: *Compile Issues Bug Type: Bug Bug description:Impossible to compile PHP 8 with libmysqlclient. Description: ------------ Starting from MariaDB version 10.2.* libmysqlclient is replaced with libmariadb. However, using the option --with mysqli=/path/to/mysql/config* will fail when compiling the package, because PHP still searches for the old library name. Here is the error message: Checking for mysql_set_server_option in -lmysqlclient... no configure: error: wrong mysql library version or lib not found. Check config.log for more information. This is happening because the mysql_config file has only following options: libs="-L$pkglibdir -lmariadb -lpthread -ldl -lm -lgnutls -lzlib" embedded_libs="-L$pkglibdir -lmysqld -lpthread -lm -lrt -ldl -lcrypt -laio" I think PHP should have an option for configuring it with the new mysql client name.
