CentOS: Lib for mysqlclient

Question

I am try to compile an old project at a new machine (CentOS 7) with gcc. The last the linker is missing is libmysqlclient.

But I can not find it in my CentOS Repos (base, updates, extras).

Anyone have an idea in which package it is? I already have installed mysql, mysql-devel and mysql-libs.

Thanks!

Cheers, Chris

edit:

rpm -Uhv updates/*.rpm

Ahh understood. You need to download the .rpm file/files from online. Google should be able to find them for you. Than you do `rpm -Uhv rpm_file_here` this should add it to yum. To look for examples try googling `add epel repo to centos` this should get you started. — Andriy Lysak, May 18 '16 at 21:51
read through this page: https://support.rackspace.com/how-to/install-epel-and-additional-repositories-on-centos-and-red-hat/ and you will get a better idea how this works — Andriy Lysak, May 18 '16 at 21:53

I am not sure what of the following 2 actions did the trick.

yum install mysqlclient.so.18
I corrected the link from /usr/lib64/mysql/mysqlclient.so to /usr/lib64/mysqlclient.so

But I can compile now :-) Thanks for help!
