Dear Maintainer, Please stop linking against libmysqlclient_r and link directly against libmysqlclient instead. Your package currently links against libmysqlclient_r. libmysqlclient_r was the thread-safe version of libmysqlclient in previous MySQL releases. However, libmysqlclient has been itself been made thread-safe since before the current libmysqlclient18. Thus libmysqlclient_r is currently deprecated and provided as a compatibility symlink only, and will disappear in MySQL 5.7. This change can be made now, in advance of a possible future transition to libmysqlclient20, which does not provide the _r variant. In Ubuntu, we have done this with the attached quilt patch, which I believe is also applicable to Debian. Please note that this requires autoreconf so will only work if applied after my patch for bug 797260. Thanks, Robie Basak Debian MySQL maintainers team Ubuntu developer
