Actually, the p5-DBD-mysql port already depends on mysql-client.
Indeed, it understands three different flavours of mysql-client, which
is a good thing. As far as I can see there's no need for rt3 to
depend on a specific version of mysql, so a dependency like:
BUILD_DEPENDS+=3D ${SITE_PERL}/${PERL_ARCH}/DBD/mysql.pm:${PORTSDIR}/da=
tabases/p5-DBD-mysql
should be sufficient.
(and the equivalent for people that want to use postgres via p5-DBD-Pg) =20
As an aside, there are two ports that can provide the DBD::mysql
module: databases/p5-Mysql (Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2219 by Jochen
Wiedmann) and databases/p5-DBD-mysql (DBD-mysql-2.9003 by Rudy Lippan)
-- only the latter seems to be being updated.
Cheers,
Matthew
