Getting myodbc working with 5.7 would be a fairly significant task: * It would require updating to 5.3 which is non-trivial since upstream has switched from autoconf to cmake, so packaging would need changes. * It would still need patching due to a known issue with the current 5.3 packages.
One suggestion is: Remove myodbc: The package has not been maintained in a while, and there are no hard dependencies on it. It is the default alternative for libreoffice-canzeley-client, but not a requirement, and otherwise only shows up as a suggestion. Once upstream has finished the work on MySQL 5.7 we can try to update myodbc in proposed to get it back into the release, but there is a significant chance there won't be enough time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1564856 Title: myodbc uses internal libmysqlclient functions no longer exported by 5.7 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/myodbc/+bug/1564856/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
