So far as I can tell from the release notes, there's no actual API change in this update release. The issue is that they realized (too late) that they should have done a soname bump between 5.1 and 5.5 because of previous changes. So it should just be a matter of a recompile of F15 packages that are currently linking to libmysqlclient.so.16. We've already taken whatever API hit there might be. regards, tom lane -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
