libmysqlclient-dev is not installed?

Closed this issue · 6 comments

I am not quite sure what to make of this one yet, but it looks like even though our Dockerfile installs libmysqlclient-dev, it's not actually installed:

# dpkg -l | grep mysql
ii  libmysqlclient20:amd64             5.7.31-0ubuntu0.18.04.1             amd64        MySQL database client library
ii  mysql-common                       5.8+1.0.4                           all          MySQL database common files, e.g. /etc/mysql/my.cnf
# which mysql_config	
# mysql_config
/bin/sh: 5: mysql_config: not found

libmysqlclient-dev is the package that installs mysql_config

This is using this image:

Found the cause in docker hub:

The underlying bugs are:

libssl-dev is removed, cascading to libmysqlclient-dev, but both removals are problematic.

This might be reason to install node via nodenv

There is also a silly workaround maybe, that avoids dependency collision:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1125036/installing-nodejs-dev-fails-depending-on-libssl1-0-dev-but-i-have-already-inst

Edit: libssl1.0-dev is a dead end, still get removal on conflicting dependencies

I opened an issue on the RTD's GitHub page, readthedocs/readthedocs.org#7990.
What I don't understand is—locally this image seems to have mysql_config, but the RTD builds seem unable to find it?

Hi @FrancescoCasalegno! We pin the Docker images we download in our servers, we don't use readthedocs/build:latest. I suggest you to try using build.image: testing in your config file that it may not have this problem.

This apt-get incompatible packages are affecting libssl-dev as well and building Python 3.10 in #174.

Currently, we are using OpenSSL 1.0.2n in all our images:

docs@03d3253830d2:~$ python2 --version ; python2 -c 'import ssl; print(ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION)'
Python 2.7.18
OpenSSL 1.0.2n  7 Dec 2017
docs@03d3253830d2:~$ python3.6 --version ; python3.6 -c 'import ssl; print(ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION)'
Python 3.6.12
OpenSSL 1.0.2n  7 Dec 2017
docs@03d3253830d2:~$ python3.7 --version ; python3.7 -c 'import ssl; print(ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION)'
Python 3.7.9
OpenSSL 1.0.2n  7 Dec 2017
docs@03d3253830d2:~$ python3.8 --version ; python3.8 -c 'import ssl; print(ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION)'
Python 3.8.6

docs@03d3253830d2:~$ python3.9 --version ; python3.9 -c 'import ssl; print(ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION)'
Python 3.9.1
OpenSSL 1.0.2n  7 Dec 2017

This won't be a problem anymore in #166 because we are not installing nodejs/npm that were conflicting with other packages. Besides, that PR adds a test that checks apt-get is not removing any package.
