I've been hung up on this issue for hours now and nothing I have found previously posted about this issue seems to work. Below is the mysql2 output for when I run bundle install:

An error occurred while installing mysql2 (0.4.5), and Bundler cannot continue.
Make sure that `gem install mysql2 -v '0.4.5'` succeeds before bundling.
In Gemfile:
mysql2
This is the relevant portion of my Gemfile:
gem 'rails', '5.1.4'
gem 'mysql2', '0.4.5'
I'm running MacOS High Sierra and have MySQL installed via Homebrew. I've tried running as bundle install --system, adding /tmp/mysql.sock to my database.yml (it was already there), as well as reinstalling just about every relevant dev tool on my system, all with no luck.
Its also worth noting that I've done this in the past with no issues... I'm not really sure what changed, but it seems to only be a problem on my system.
Thanks for any help you can provide
UPDATE: I'm able to the the gem for mysql2 v0.4.5 to install properly when I run gem install mysql2 -v '0.4.5' -- --srcdir=/usr/local/Cellar/mysql/8.0.11/include/
So the problem ended up being that homebrew recently made mysql v8.x.x the standard installation and I ran homebrew upgrades which took me off the standard that our codebase supported... Noted for the future. Once I brought my system mysql version down to accurately reflect what mysql2 was looking for, it worked.
