[Bug 259121] databases/tdbc has fixed dependency on mysql client 5.7
Date: Sun, 17 Oct 2021 08:43:11 UTC
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=259121 --- Comment #2 from Peter Dean <p.dean@internode.on.net> --- I have mariadb-server installed as part of my nextcloud installation. I also run tclhttpd server which responds to network links from google earth by querying a postgresql database. To do that it needs the tdbc postgresql driver only. But the tdbc pkg tries to install mysql-client. It can only do that by uninstalling mariadb-client thus breaking my nextcloud. I'm somewhat of a newbie deciding to switch to freebsd from arch for complex reasons. On arch, tdbc is included in the tcl package and has no installation dependency on any database client. Obviously you need to install the client for the database you want to access. I found that I could install the tdbc port without mysql client by modifying the mysql_uses in the makefile. But the broken pkg comes back when I do 'pkg upgrade'. What is my best and easiest solution? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
