[Bug 681165] [NEW] libmysqld-dev missing package dependency

[Nick Nerolis]

Public bug reported:

MySql documentation
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/libmysqld-compiling.html

reports that programs compiled against libmysqld library should do so by using
mysql_config --libmysqld-libs

The above command reports that the following linking flags should be used
-Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -rdynamic -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqld -ldl -lwrap -lrt

but libwrap-dev package is not listed as a package dependency to
libmysqld-dev. Therefore linking against libmysqld fails
