QMYSQL driver not loaded - macOS 15.3 XCA 2.8.0

[marek-liska]

When I try to connect to a remote database in XCA client (2.8.0) on macOS, the window only offers PostgreSQL and ODBC options, not MySQL. I'm sure I'm missing something but I don't know what.

When opened in the terminal, the app prints "QMYSQL driver not loaded" so maybe it is still expecting it somewhere where it's not.

it seems that QMYSQL plugin expects /Users/chris/build/xca-dir/install/lib/libmariadb.3.dylib
