The MongoDB mongoclient C++ library is obsolete and no longer available

[rhertzog]

The MongoDB upstream developers dropped the mongoclient library in favor of https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-cxx-driver This has been reported in Debian here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=833055

I think you need to adjust your codebase to work with mongo-cxx-driver or another client library. Unfortunately in Debian, mongo-cxx-driver is not yet available. But there are other MongoDB client libraries too starting with the plain C version. Do we really need a C++ library?

@xrmx i think we should move out of the main tree the obsolete plugins and create new dedicated repositories for them

I assume that the mongodb using plugins are part of the obsolete ones?

[unbit]

yes :)
