[debian-mysql] Bug#590906: libmysqld-dev: Missing dependency on libcrypt-dev and wrong mysqld_config output

[Andreas Pakulat]

Package: libmysqld-dev
Version: 5.1.48-1
Severity: important

Hi,

currently mysqld_config outputs this:
~>mysql_config --libmysqld-libs
-rdynamic -L/usr/lib/mysql -lmysqld -ldl -lwrap -lrt

However to link against the mysqld library one also needs to link in
libcrypt. This library is missing in the above output and also missing
from the dependency of the package. This causes apps that want to use
mysqld to fail in linking.
