Comment 6 for bug 490983

mysql51 requires mysqlclient15 to resolve backward compatibility with anything built against stock mysql-5.0 (php-mysql, etc). Actually, mysql51 doesn't require it, but it makes the transition smooth for everything else that does require libmysqlclient.so.15 (mysql-5.0 libraries) so we require it in mysql51. The mysql50 package had a legacy 'Provides: mysqlclient15' that was removed in 5.0.86-2.ius but due to a harddrive crash that change was lost before I had a chance to commit it to bazaar. I verified against the source rpm that that was the only change missing.

Many apologies, mysql50-5.0.88-2.ius will be out soon fixing this conflict.

Thanks for the feedback and understanding on this.
