"pluggable authentication is not available" for recent client library

[nroose]

Hi. I am using a recent Alpine (v3.18), a recent Rails (7.0.7.2). A recent mariadb-dev version (10.11.5-r0). When I try to update to Ruby 3.2.2, I get "pluggable authentication is not available, you may need a newer MySQL client library".

We were previously using mysql2 0.5.3, but that does not seem to be compatible with Ruby 3.2.2, because we are getting the error

<internal:/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/3.2.0/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb>:38:in `require': Error relocating bundle/ruby/3.2.0/gems/mysql2-0.5.3/lib/mysql2/mysql2.so: rb_tainted_str_new2: symbol not found - bundle/ruby/3.2.0/gems/mysql2-0.5.3/lib/mysql2/mysql2.so (LoadError)

Is there a way I can get around this? Thanks.

It seems that 0.5.4+ require secure connection to the db. Is that correct?
