[Bug 1570923] Re: bacula-dir won't start with "undefined symbol: mysql_init"

[Nish Aravamudan]

@Kern and others affected, I have uploaded to the same PPA
(ppa:nacc/bacula) updated packages including the MySQL fix mentioned in
LP: #1592749.

Please test the version for your system and report back.

Xenial: 7.4.1~dfsg-1.1~ppa8.is.actually.7.0.5+dfsg-4.1~ppa3
Yakkety: 7.4.1~dfsg-1ubuntu1~ppa2

Thanks,
Nish

Title:
  bacula-dir won't start with "undefined symbol: mysql_init"

Status in Bacula:
  New
Status in bacula package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress
Status in bacula source package in Xenial:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  [Impact]

   * bacula-dir fails to start after installation.

  [Test Case]

   * Install bacula-director-mysql after installing mysql-server.
  bacula-dir fails to start (and the installation fails).

   * In a successful case, the bacula-dir process will start (and be
  running after installation).

  [Regression Potential]

   * The fix for this is to backport an upstream fix that changes the
  build to not use libmysqlclient_r.* files (which are no longer
  shiipped with MySQL 5.7). The regression potential should be low, as
  bacula-dir currently does not start at all.

  1. Ubuntu release :
  Description:    Ubuntu Xenial Xerus (development branch)
  Release:        16.04

  2. Version of package
  bacula-director-mysql:
    Installed: 7.0.5+dfsg-4build1
    Candidate: 7.0.5+dfsg-4build1
    Version table:
   *** 7.0.5+dfsg-4build1 500
          500 http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu xenial/universe amd64 Packages
          100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

  3. Expectation : bacula-dir should start

  4. bacula-dir did not start because of :

  root at xenial:~# bacula-dir -d 99
  bacula-dir: dird.c:194-0 Debug level = 99
  bacula-dir: address_conf.c:264-0 Initaddr 0.0.0.0:9101
  root at xenial:~# bacula-dir: dir_plugins.c:148-0 Load dir plugins
  bacula-dir: dir_plugins.c:150-0 No dir plugin dir!
  bacula-dir: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/bacula/libbaccats-7.0.5.so: undefined symbol: mysql_init
