Error: shared library "mysqlclient.18" does not exist

[Jeff Tipton]

Hi,

I'm trying to set up security/maia, and this is the error message I get:

Error: shared library "mysqlclient.18" does not exist

Of course, the library does exist :(

# ls /usr/local/lib/mysql/
libmysqlclient.a       libmysqlclient_r.a     libmysqld.a
libmysqlclient.so      libmysqlclient_r.so    libmysqlservices.a
libmysqlclient.so.18   libmysqlclient_r.so.18 plugin

I googled about this, and I found 3 things to try but none of that was 
helpful here:

1. make a link:
ln -s /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.18 
/usr/local/lib/libmysqlclient.so.18

2. Check the root's umask and the directory permissions if they are 
correct, and they are:
# umask
22
#ll /usr/local/lib |grep mysql
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel        41 Mar 11 16:25 libmysqlclient.so.18@ 
-> /usr/local/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.18
drwxr-xr-x   3 root  wheel       512 Mar 11 16:22 mysql/

# ll /usr/local/lib/mysql/

drwxr-xr-x  2 root  wheel       512 Mar  8 19:01 plugin/

3. Update the ports tree. Ports tree is up to date.

Could someone, please, suggest what I could try to solve this?

Thanks,
Jeff
