I pushed a workaround (or a hack dependent on point of view) that builds mysqld without shared libaio dependency, on Linuxes that provide static libaio (not all Linuxes have it, for example there is no static libaio on OpenSUSE). However, users of shared embedded library will still have shared libaio dependency, and users of static embedded library will need to link with either static or shared aio themselves to satisfy all dependencies . mysql_config has -laio in the link flags for embedded > Regards, > Monty > > _______________________________________________ > Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers > Post to : [email protected] > Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers > More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~maria-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
