Recently the Bug "MySQL plugin binaries are in commercial packages" https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-76081 was closed.
This means that (starting with Qt-5.12.3, I think) it is not possible to access MySQL or MariaDB databases with LGPL or commercial Qt versions. I am using LGPL Qt. To avoid licensing problems I used the QtSQL plugin for MySQL but replaced the MySQL libmysql.dll with libmariadb.dll (by renaming the latter). This does not work anymore because there is no sqldrivers/qsqlmysql.dll in the binary LGPL distributions. I tried to manually build the MySQL driver but failed because configure not only looks for libmysql.* but also for a config.win32 (why). Any ideas or hints for this? Helmut PS: The current Qt documentation does not mention the problems with MySQL. PPS: Anybody out there looked at libdrizzle or libdrizzle-redux as an alternative to qsqlmysql?
