Re: removing bundled libmysql

By the way, was there an official MySQL announcement about the move to GPL? Andi At 08:17 PM 6/21/2003 +0200, Andi Gutmans wrote:

Hey, I'm putting this message out as a feeler. I'm going to go ahead and remove the mysql library from the PHP source tree. This won't affect the extension, it simply means we won't be bundling the *library* with PHP anymore. This is in a large part due to MySQL's decision to switch to using the GPL for their client libraries as well. Linkage will still be available, but we can't ship the GPL library, and the MySQL 3.2.23 library can't connect to MySQL 4.1 servers, rendering it broken. Speak now, or forever hold your peace. ;-)

+1 from me. It's their loss more than it is ours. Andi -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
