Problem/Incident
is caused by ODBC-136 Make Connector/C a git sub-project Closed

 Description   

After install MariaDB 10.2 (after installing the custom repo), the following satisfy the cmake dependencies:
yum install MariaDB-client MariaDB-server MariaDB-devel unixODBC

However link failures happen if you run cmake then make. For this to build the following is needed:

  • cmake -DWITH_OPENSSL=on
  • modify tests/CMakeLists.txt to add z as a lib dep: SET(PLATFORM_DEPENDENCIES ${PLATFORM_DEPENDENCIES} "pthread" "dl" "z")

I'd suggest make WITH_OPENSSL=on the default setting since this is what we build with and fix the test cmake file.

I guess that(z dependency) is because those packages install client library from server. I usually... well, always build using Connector/C, and it does not require -lz
mariadb_config --libs
-L/usr/local/lib/mariadb/ -lmariadb -lpthread -ldl -lm -liconv -liconv

ah that makes sense. I didn't think about installing connector/c directly and assumed it was easier to use an os package.

Both 2.0 and 3.0 connectors are now build with C/C as a git sub-module, and this should solve the issue
