Did you configure/install MySQL *and* the mysql-dev packages or whatever your OS needs for the MySQL headers to be there? Did you also compile MySQL and install it? Is there a libmysqlclient somewhere like /usr/local/lib or /usr/lib or whatever is appropriate for your system? On Linux, did you do that 'ldconfig' thing that tells the OS to scan for new libraries in various dirs? On Linux, is the dir where your libmysqlclient lives listed in /etc/ld.so.conf so that the OS can find it when you do the ldconfig thing? ldconfig -v | grep mysql is your buddy on Linux for this one. Not that I've ever stumbled through this problem before, oh no. :-) :-) :-) It's weird how quickly this stuff becomes second nature after you screw it up a half-dozen times...
