Unable to build libqsqlmysql.so in Ubuntu 16.04 LTS

cristiano.narcisi

Hi all
i am trying to compile the libqsqlmysql driver because i have noticed that after the upgrade to 16.04 LTS, it misses one dependency.
I paste the ldd output:

	linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007ffeb86c7000)
	libmysqlclient.so.18 => not found
	libQt5Sql.so.5 => /home/cristiano/Qt/5.6/gcc_64/plugins/sqldrivers/./../../lib/libQt5Sql.so.5 (0x00007fbc0f8ad000)

	libpcre.so.3 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpcre.so.3 (0x00007fbc0b331000)

After a quick search in my folder i have found that i have installed an higher version of the missing one:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmysqlclient.so.20

I hence have downloaded from the site the qt-base-opensource-src-5.6.0 and i have tried to compile the plugin running the following command:

/home/cristiano/Qt/5.6/gcc_64/bin/qmake "INCLUDEPATH+=/usr/include/mysql/" "LIBS+=-L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ -l libmysqlclient" mysql.pro

After running "make" i get this error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -llibmysqlclient
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient_r
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:111: recipe for target '../../../../plugins/sqldrivers/libqsqlmysql.so' failed
make: *** [../../../../plugins/sqldrivers/libqsqlmysql.so] Error 1

What i am doing wrong???

Thanks

Hi,

Looks like you didn't install the MySQL development package.
