So I’m revisiting an old friend, Sphinx. It’s been a while and warming up to Sphinx’s new features. However, when I tried to brew install it, I got no MySQL support.
The above gets more complicated because I’m not using vanilla MySQL, instead I’m using Percona Server on my machine. So to get thing going, here’s what I did.
$ brew unlink percona-server
$ brew install mysql-connector-c
$ brew link percona-server
$ brew install sphinx --mysql
\m/
