Description Andre 2011-11-10 12:21:42 UTC 
The MySQL C++ connector has GPL license which is incompatible with the Apache license.  Therefore the mysqlcppconn module, where the external library is built from mysql-connector-cpp.zip, has to be removed.

Remove mysqlcppconn and references to it.

Remove the mysqlcppconn module that provided a local build of the MySQL Connector/C++.
Comment 2 Andre 2011-11-14 08:21:59 UTC 
The connector can still be built but the required libraries have to be supplied externally.
Use options
  --enable-mysql-connector
  --with-system-mysql 
  --with-libmysql-path
  --with-system-mysql-cppconn
for this.
