Re: undefined reference to `get_driver_instance'

Update: Yum local installation failed with an error of conflicting requests. I have already removed all the old software so these files, or static link files do not exist.
This was my command: sudo yum localinstall mysql-connector-c++-devel-8.0.25-1.el8.x86_64.rpm

(try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages or '--nobest' to use not only best candidate packages)

I'm not sure what my next step is. I'm considering reinstalling mysql as well as a new connector from the same source because I'm not sure if there are conflicting libraries or other discrepancies between these things. Any suggestions? I'm spinning my wheels.
