This is now fixed. If you just want libdrizzle, go to lp:libdrizzle.

Title:
  It should be possible to just build libdrizzle without drizzled

Status in A Lightweight SQL Database for Cloud Infrastructure and Web Applications:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Feature request, originally reported on drizzle-discuss.

  I'm one of the authors of the Nginx Drizzle module that makes Nginx
  talk nonblockingly to MySQL/Drizzle backends via libdrizzle 1.0:

     http://wiki.nginx.org/HttpDrizzleModule

  Quite a few big companies here in China have been using this Nginx
  module quite extensively in production for months already. And it
  won't be possible without the excellent libdrizzle client.

  But recently, however, a lot of our users have been complaining about
  the pains involved in building libdrizzle 1.0 with the recent releases
  of Drizzle7 though. Older versions of drizzle7 released months ago did
  support building libdrizzle 1.0 like this:

         ./configure --without-server
         make libdrizzle-1.0
         make install-libdrizzle-1.0

  But it no longer works in recent releases of drizzle7. And now it
  seems to be required to build everything including the server, and
  requiring all those dependencies like a very new version of boost and
  protobuf that libdrizzle 1.0 does not need at all. In fact, most of
  our users are only using libdrizzle 1.0 to connect to an official
  MySQL server and do not want to bother building the drizzle server.

  We're really missing the good old time when libdrizzle is painless to
  set up in a moderate production system.

  I wonder if the drizzle development team is willing to add back
  support for building libdrizzle 1.0 separately and skip all those
  weird dependency checks in the ./configure script. If yes, then it'll
  be highly appreciated.

  Thank you for taking the time to read this mail and thank you all for
  creating this wonderful library in the first place!

  
  *****

  Proposal is to provide a way to build just libdrizzle without the
  configure and dependencies needed for full drizzled.
