If mysql client libraries are not installed, (s)he probably don't want.
The plain presence of a package is not an indication. For good results a more advanced heuristic is required, and this is simply not task of a package.
The libgda-mysql is nice example how attempts to fine-tune this on an inapropriate level will break. As Reinhard said, the libraries will be present, becouse they are required by zillion another packages.
Well, think about libgda-oracle, libgda-msql or libgda-odbc. There is not many packages requiring oracle client library. My suggestion is simple: libgda, but no oracle client library => do not suggest oracle plugin libgda, but no msql client library => do not suggest msql plugin etc. -- Best Regards / S pozdravem, Stanislav Brabec software developer --------------------------------------------------------------------- SuSE CR, s. r. o. e-mail: sbrabec@suse.cz Drahobejlova 27 tel: +420 296 542 382 190 00 Praha 9 fax: +420 296 542 374 Czech Republic http://www.suse.cz/
