Can't install DBD::mysql via cpan

Closed this issue · 1 comments

DBD::mysql version

5.003

MySQL client version

10.8.8

Server version

10.5.23-MariaDB

Operating system version

Fedora 39

What happened?

I definitely need to install the module from the command line via cpan. But during installation I get the message DBD::mysql requires MySQL 8.x for building. Version reported by mysql_config --version: 10.8.8 at Makefile.PL line 451.
It's not difficult to fix and install manually, but I need to do without it for various reasons.
Is there anything that can be done?
