## Description

Installing the 16.04. OpenProject package seems to fail for some users with the following issue:

    LoadError: Could not load 'active_record/connection_adapters/mysql2_adapter'. Make sure that the adapter in config/database.yml is valid. If you use an adapter other than 'mysql', 'mysql2', 'postgresql' or 'sqlite3' add the necessary adapter gem to the Gemfile.

the interesting part is within the trace:

    LoadError: libmysqlclient.so.18: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory - /opt/openproject/vendor/bundle/ruby/2.1.0/extensions/x86_64-linux/2.1.0-static/mysql2-0.4.3/mysql2/mysql2.so
