     What good will it be to get a volunteer to build a mysql connector for
4.0 if the connector can not be build? There are problems on OS X and LInux
because of changes made in autogen.sh. This needs to be fixed first before
finding a volunteer.
     Until recently, this is used to configure the connector:
./autogen.sh --enable-ext-mysql-connector --with-system-mysql.

     In the last couple of days, this has been changed (without seemingly
any documentation on this mailing list) to:
./autogen.sh --enable-ext-mariadb-connector --with-system-mariadb.

     One other problem in building this connector that did not exist prior
to the change from mysql to mariadb: autogen.sh does not find the installed
version of mariadb. This also prevents building the connector.
     This is the output containing the errors:

checking whether to build the MariaDB/MySQL Connector extension... yes
checking which MariaDB to use... external
checking for mariadb_config... no
checking MariaDB version... ./configure: line 21356: --version: command not
found
./configure: line 21357: --version: command not found
./configure: line 21358: test: : integer expression expected
configure: error: too old, use 5.0.x or 5.1.x
Error running configure at ./autogen.sh line 201.
     It appears that this problem should be corrected first before trying to
build the MariaDB/MySQL connector.


You should not use master if you want something for productive use.
Use the 4.0 branch where everything is still like before.

Testing master is of course appreciated but you should also note that
it is still unstable and incompatible changes might happen. To
announce these changes or fix them we still have a few months to the
4.1 release. IF you want to build the MySQL Connector use the
libreoffice-4-0 branch which should work for all 4.0.x builds.

Markus
