Can't find libmysqlclient15 version 5.0.67

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server SLES Configure-Administer

Hi,

I’m trying to install Bacula, non corporate version on SLES SP3. I need to install libmysqlclient-devel which is part of SLES SDK 11, but its dependancy of libmysqlclient15 version 5.0.67 is not met. The newer version 5.0.96 is installed but I am still having issues when trying to install bacula. Below is the output when trying to make bacula install version is 7.0.3 of open bacula free version.

Thanks for all the help.

two things:

  1. Dependencies: Have you installed the SDK as an add-on product, so that you have access to the updated contents?

  2. You need to provide libz (" cannot find -lz") - “zypper in zlib-devel” might help.

Thanks Jens,

when trying to install zlib-devel, i have yet another broken dependancy as it require zlib version 1.2.3 and the current one is 1.2.7

Also yes, the SDK for SLES 11 has been added both to the add-on products and to available repos

Can anyone recommend a backup software server solution similar to bacula that is compatible with SLES 11 SP3.

I ended up install zlib version 1.2.3 as required which would give me the dependancy for libmysqlclient15 5.0.67 which would then meet the requirement for libmysqlclient-devel. But in the process of installing zlib 1.2.3 it had to downgrade dependancies which resulted in a server that was useless at the end of the day as binutils rpm was downgraded and after the uninstall, the older version was unable to be installed, and failed.

Long story short is there something other than bacula project that is free as a backup solution on sles 11 sp3, something that acts like a backup server to pull data from other servers, and store locally or to tape.

Thanks in advance

Hi ticoon,

My SLES11SP3 says:

[CODE]myhost:~ # zypper info --requires libmysqlclient-devel
[…]
Information for package libmysqlclient-devel:

Repository: SLE11-SDK-SP3-Pool
Name: libmysqlclient-devel
Version: 5.0.96-0.6.1

[…]
zlib-devel
openssl-devel
libmysqlclient15 == 5.0.96
libmysqlclient_r15 == 5.0.96[/CODE]
so currently it’s 5.0.96 and not 5.0.67. zlib-devel is at 1.2.7:

Might it be your system is not properly configured for updates? What does “zypper lr” report?

Oh, and we’re running self-compiled versions of Bacula on a wide range of SLES systems, including of course SLES11SP3.
