database error report

That's something I noticed in our unstable amarok package tracking git master, and the issue is still present in 3.3 beta:

# rpm -qv qt6-sql-mysql 
qt6-sql-mysql-6.9.0-151.1.x86_64

# mariadb --version
mariadb from 11.7.2-MariaDB, client 15.2 for Linux (x86_64) using  EditLine wrapper

# amarok --version
amarok 3.2.81
QThreadStorage: entry 9 destroyed before end of thread 0x55749ee005d0
QThreadStorage: entry 4 destroyed before end of thread 0x55749ee005d0
QThreadStorage: entry 3 destroyed before end of thread 0x55749ee005d0

# rm ~/.config/amarokrc                    
# rm ~/.cache/amarok -r
# rm ~/.local/share/amarok -r

On startup, amarok reports a database error, see screenshot

# rpm -ql amarok |grep mysql   
/usr/lib64/qt6/plugins/amarok_collection-mysqlcollection.so
/usr/lib64/qt6/plugins/amarok_storage-mysqlserverstorage.so

It seems amarok is unable to find its mysql plugin:

Comment 2 Christophe Marin 2025-04-15 08:04:20 UTC 
The root cause is amarok's FindMySQLe.cmake and how it's used.

The application is (still) unable to work correctly if the libmysqld library isn't present at build time, but the build system doesn't stop the build
Comment 3 Tuomas Nurmi 2025-04-15 17:01:40 UTC 
Thank you for the report and pinpointing the issue! I'll try to have a look at the related CMake parts at some point.
