    The MySQL dependency sounds to me like a packaging mistake, a bug should be filed IMHO.
    That being said, however, I must disagree with the recommendation to compile it yourself.

    The way the Extras build systems works, it will be compiled against the same libraries that the user has installed on their system to satisfy dependencies - and by using a package, updates and bug fixes are readily available when they are pushed to the Extras repository.
