libmysqlclient.so.15 - Where can I get it?

Hello archers,

I need libmysqlclient.so.15 to get something to run and just symlinking it to libmysqlclient.so does not work. So where can i grab that file for arch? Does anybody still have it laying around and would be so kind to share it with me please?

thanks a bunch,

You can't rebuild against a newer lib? If not, you'll need to go to the AUR to build an old version of mysql.

I need it in order to use a Teamspeak3 server with MySQL instead of SQLite.
Since that's a closed source package, I guess rebuilding it is not an option.

On ubuntu or debian, one could just download that old libmysqlclient.so.15 and install it manually.
So I am guessing if I could find arch's version of it anywhere, this might already fix my problem.

I think I don't really need an old version of MySQL. Just that one single file.

I doubt just one .so file will fix anything.  But a previous version of libmariadbclient is in the AUR.  If that isn't 'early' enough, you can revise that PKGBUILD (or one from ABS) to grab earlier source code.

But then if you know that downloading that single file and putting it in the right place will work (if this really works in debian) then you can do the same thing here.  There is no "arch version" of a library, it's the same lib.

I just grabbed that file from debian and copied ot over to my arch server. Working like a charm now.

...until there's a soname bump in one of the libs it's linked to and everything goes to hell again.
