Hello group I'm trying to compile dbmail against mysql, but already getting lost while configuring.
I start with: ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql/include --prefix=/usr/local/dbmail and then the script tells me: checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for working aclocal... missing checking for working autoconf... missing checking for working automake... missing checking for working autoheader... missing checking for working makeinfo... missing checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking for ranlib... ranlib checking for mysql.h (user supplied)... /usr/local/mysql/include/mysql.h checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed checking for mysql_real_connect in -lmysqlclient... no configure: error: Unable to link against mysqlclient. It appears you are missing the development libraries or they aren't in your linker's path I have no .so fitting to this anywhere on my sys. All i can offer is the content of /usr/local/mysql/include, wich is the following: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/dbmail_1_2_2> ll /usr/local/mysql/lib total 1737 -rw-r--r-- 1 root mysql 10774 Nov 2 2002 libdbug.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root mysql 879270 Nov 2 2002 libmygcc.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root mysql 275802 Nov 2 2002 libmysqlclient.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root mysql 281372 Nov 2 2002 libmysqlclient_r.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root mysql 120380 Nov 2 2002 libmystrings.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root mysql 200006 Nov 2 2002 libmysys.a This is what is in the "linkers path": [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/dbmail_1_2_2> more /etc/ld.so.conf /usr/X11R6/lib/Xaw95 /usr/X11R6/lib/Xaw3d /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/i486-linux/lib /usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib=libc5 /usr/i486-linux-libc6/lib=libc6 /usr/i486-linuxaout/lib /usr/i386-suse-linux/lib /usr/local/lib /usr/local/mysql/lib /usr/openwin/lib /opt/kde/lib /opt/kde2/lib /opt/kde3/lib /opt/gnome/lib /opt/gnome2/lib Any help is appreciated. cu Holger
