Notorious QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL driver not loaded but available

On a Gentoo system, I get the notorious Qt mysql error: QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL driver not loaded QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE QMYSQL QMYSQL3 QPSQL QPSQL7 false This has numerous posts on various forums, some of which are unresolved. Simple code to reproduce the error is given in e.g. http://adamcavendish.is-programmer.com/posts/40431.html int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {     QApplication a(argc, argv);       QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");     db.setHostName("localhost");     db.setDatabaseName("test");     db.setUserName("test");     db.setPassword("xxxxxxxxxx");     bool ok = db.open();     qDebug() << ok;     db.close();       MainWindow w;     w.show();       return a.exec(); } I have in my project .pro file: QT += sql There are no compiler errors. However, as the link http://adamcavendish.is-programmer.com/posts/40431.html suggests, my issue is of this type: Using ldd I see that: $ ldd libqsqlmysql.so ./libqsqlmysql.so: /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient_r.so.16: version `libmysqlclient_16’ not found (required by ./libqsqlmysql.so) Simply giving it this file as a symlink to the newer version (18) doesn’t work. So in other words I’m assuming I need to recompile this libqsqlmysql.so to use the newer version? How do I go about compiling the new version? According to qtcreator/5.4/Src/README it is stated that: “A typical `configure; make’ build process is used.” I do configure (in qtcreator/5.4/Src), everything seems fine. I do make, and I get: g++ -c -pipe -O2 -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -DQT_BOOTSTRAPPED -DQT_LITE_UNICODE -DQT_NO_CAST_TO_ASCII -DQT_NO_CODECS -DQT_NO_DATASTREAM -DQT_NO_LIBRARY -DQT_NO_QOBJECT -DQT_NO_SYSTEMLOCALE -DQT_NO_THREAD -DQT_NO_UNICODETABLES -DQT_NO_USING_NAMESPACE -DQT_NO_DEPRECATED -DQT_NO_TRANSLATION -DQT_QMAKE_LOCATION=\”/usr/bin/qmake\” -DQT_CRYPTOGRAPHICHASH_ONLY_SHA1 -DQT_NO_CAST_FROM_ASCII -DQT_NO_DEBUG -I/usr/share/qt4/mkspecs/linux-g++ -I. -I/usr/include/qt4 -I. -o qlatincodec.o ../../corelib/codecs/qlatincodec.cpp ../../corelib/codecs/qlatincodec.cpp:35:19: fatal error: qlist.h: No such file or directory #include “qlist.h” I’ve tried the following versions: Qt Creator 3.1.2 (opensource) Based on Qt 5.3.1 (GCC 4.6.1, 64 bit) Qt Creator 3.3.1 (opensource) Based on Qt 5.4.1 (GCC 4.6.1, 64 bit)
