Description-en: simple, fast MySQL library for Ruby
This is an API module that allows Ruby programs to interface with MySQL
databases. Usually, it will be pulled in automatically by packages providing
Ruby programs which need this capability, you only need to install it directly
if you intend to write such programs yourself. You may want to prefer the
ruby-mysql2 package over the ruby-mysql package, since benchmarks have shown
it to be faster, it is non-blocking and it supports UTF-8 database encoding.
