It has been in Debian for a while, but under a non-intuitive name:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/mysql++.html
I'm not sure why the decision was made to call it libsqlplus (I assume
it was based on the sqlplus.hh header name). I've been itching to
rename it; if anyone has a better suggestion than libmysql++ or
libmysqlplusplus, let me know. I'm also considering libmysqlpp.
