Solution

Run the following command and install the bundle again

sudo apt-get install libmysql-ruby libmysqlclient-dev

OTHER TIPS

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

then

gem install mysql2 -v=X.X.x

where x.x.x is the version that you need
then bundle install

2018.11.05 => Depreciated.

After an apt search libmysqlclient-dev you will get the new package you will need to continue installing mysql2.

In my case it results default-libmysqlclient-dev

apt install default-libmysqlclient-dev

gem install mysql2 -v 0.4.6

=> then you can restart thebundle installenter code here cmd.
