Failed to build MariaDB server 11.5 on Ubunut 23.04 and older

Details

    Description

      When I tried to build a MariaDB 11.5 server according your documentation here:

      https://mariadb.com/kb/en/get-build-and-test-latest-mariadb-the-lazy-way/

      I get this error:

      CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.25/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message):
      		 
        Could NOT find GnuTLS (missing: GNUTLS_LIBRARY GNUTLS_INCLUDE_DIR)
      		 
        (Required is at least version "3.3.24")
      		 
      Call Stack (most recent call first):
      		 
        /usr/share/cmake-3.25/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:600 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE)
      		 
        /usr/share/cmake-3.25/Modules/FindGnuTLS.cmake:68 (FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS)
      		 
        libmariadb/CMakeLists.txt:335 (FIND_PACKAGE)

      After installing this package:

      apt install libgnutls28-dev

      cmake worked without an error.

      So I assume there is a missing dependency in mariadb-server. Or at least you should fix the docu.

          Yes, openssl3.0 is required for later versions.

          Where openssl 3.0 isn't found, its forcing gnutls https://github.com/MariaDB/server/blob/11.5/cmake/mariadb_connector_c.cmake#L15. Because Wolfssl can't be used by connector? Not sure.

          So at the moment, looks like a dependency.

          no, openssl 3.0 is not required for later versions, 1.1 or even 1.0 (I guess) will work too.

          But you're building with -DBUILD_CONFIG=mysql_release, this is a bintar build, it build everything bundled as much as possible. It will not use system OpenSSL no matter what version it'll be.

          The problem here is that apt build-dep mariadb-server fetches build dependencies for a deb build, but you're performing a bintar build. I'll update the manual.
