From c071b165a35e56c1f070813212ef8ff899732da5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kai Koehne Date: Tue, 21 Jan 2014 15:33:40 +0100 Subject: Doc: Remove section on how build the MySQL driver for MinGW users The section is clearly outdated. It references MinGW from mingw.org, which we don't support anymore. With a more modern MinGW you can just use the recipe to link against the prebuilt binaries the same way we do describe for MSVC.
