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. Test script: --------------- ./configure --with-mysqli=/path/to/mysql_config ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=80353&edit=1
