Source: libdbd-mysql-perl
Version: 4.050-5
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
Dear Maintainer,
after an apt upgrade on Debian 12 (bookworm), libdbd-mysql-perl was upgraded
from the Debian version 4.050-5+b1 to version 1:5.013-1.bookworm.
After the upgrade, the DBD::mysql binary module (mysql.so) is broken at
runtime. The module does not declare any dependency on libmariadb or
libmysqlclient and fails to load with an undefined symbol error.
This can be verified with:
readelf -d mysql.so | grep NEEDED
With version 1:5.013-1.bookworm, the only NEEDED entry is libc.so.6.
With the Debian build (4.050-5+b1), mysql.so correctly declares a dependency
on libmariadb.so.3.
As a result, any Perl code using DBI with the mysql driver fails at load time
with:
undefined symbol: mysql_sqlstate
The issue appears to be a regression introduced by the 1:5.013-1.bookworm
package. Downgrading to the Debian version 4.050-5+b1 restores correct
behaviour.
A related upstream issue has been reported:
https://perconadev.atlassian.net/browse/PT-2509
Kind regards

"1:5.013-1.bookworm"? There is no version 1:5.013-1.bookworm of
libdbd-mysql-perl in Debian:

So whereever you got this broken package from it's not Debian and
there's nothing we can do about it.
You can check with "apt policy", like
% PAGER=cat apt policy libdbd-mysql-perl
libdbd-mysql-perl:
Installed: 4.054-1
Candidate: 4.054-1
Version table:
*** 4.054-1 990
500 http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian testing/main amd64 Packages

4.050-3+b1 500

(That's on my laptop running unstable.)
A related upstream issue has been reported:
https://perconadev.atlassian.net/browse/PT-2509
Looking at the linked report at
https://forums.percona.com/t/percona-toolkit-pt-show-grants-3-7-1-broken-on-debian-13/40009
there seems to be "Percona apt repository". In case you got your libdbd-mysql-perl
from them, you need to take this issue up with them.
Cheers,
gregor, closing this bug
