Source: gnash Version: 0.8.9~git20110220-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch
Recent versions of gnash and gnash-tools started to depend on libmysqlclient16. I believe that this dependency is unneeded.
Please consider either applying the attached patch or getting rid of the dependency by some other means.

Description: Avoid unneeded dependencies on libmysqlclient. Normally, a few Gnash binaries would be linked to libmysqlclient, though they use only a single symbol coming from this library: __cxa_pure_virtual. However, this symbol is also provided by libstdc++. . This patch ensures that gnash will use libstdc++ implementation of __cxa_pure_virtual, thus avoiding unneeded dependencies on libmysqlclient.
