I think you need to re read Re^5: plugin 'mysql_old_password' cannot be loaded, and tell me what you don't understand. You haven't stated which versions of the mysql dependencies you're building against. Simply manually building a perl modules isn't going to solve your problem. You need to explain what you think you are doing and why.

Take for example v5.28.1 with mysql-5.7.16

My understanding of this is that perl 5.28.1 is configured to connect to a mysql server version 5.7.16. Is it what you meant ?

The server I would like to connect to is 5.5.53.

Since I'm able to connect using an old strawberry perl 5.24 install with driver 4.033, but can't connect with a newer perl portable setup, I thought there would be a module to downgrade.

Installing portable strawberry perl 5.24 does not gives me the same situation, since the DBD::mysql driver is 4.046.

I thought that reinstalling the 4.033 version would work
