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

[Nish Aravamudan]

Please test the potential fix version at:

https://launchpad.net/~nacc/+archive/ubuntu/bacula

Which results in 7.4.1~dfsg-1ubuntu1~ppa1 on yakkety or
7.4.1~dfsg-1.1~ppa8.is.actually.7.0.5+dfsg-4.1~ppa2 on xenial.

** Description changed:

- 1. Ubuntu release : 
+ [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.

  [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.
