Description
As discussed already in https://lists.launchpad.net/maria-developers/msg06643.html and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1045013, we'd like to sync symbol versioning of libmysqlclient.so to provide compatible libraries at least in RPM packages across distributions.
It seems the best solution we can do now is to use both, libmysqlclient_16 and libmysqlclient_18 version for older symbols from 5.1 and libmysqlclient_18 only for symbols from 5.5. libmysqlclient_18 will be default version in both cases.
The attached patch should implement that only for RHEL-7 RPMs, but we'd like to adopt the same since Fedora 21 (not sure if MariaDB's build system can distinguish between fedora versions).
