Package: mariadb-client-lgpl
Version: 2.0.0-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I tried to use libmariadb-client-lgpl to replace libmysqlclient in my application.
However, when I use mysql_real_connect with "localhost" as a server name, it fails with:

  Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock'

I checked, that mysql-5.5 source package redefines MYSQL_UNIX_ADDR to the correct value,
see: http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-mysql/mysql-5.5.git/tree/debian/rules

Please, add the same into debian/rules for mariadb-client-lgpl:

override_dh_auto_configure:
	dh_auto_configure -O--buildsystem=cmake -- \
	-DLIB_INSTALL_DIR:STRING=lib/$(DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH) \
	-DWITH_EXTERNAL_ZLIB:BOOL=ON \
        -DMYSQL_UNIX_ADDR=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

Thank you!
