The mysql package includes the MySQL daemon, the client, a few utilities, and the C headers+libraries. (I thought about putting the development stuff in another package called "mysql-dev", but I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble since they are small.) xmysql is dynamically linked against the X libs, so you'll need xlib6 in order to run the program (besides xforms, etc.). > also, the libs seem to be only for perl, and are in section interpreter. The package is called "libdbd-mysql-perl" and includes the DBD::Mysql module for Perl--that's why it's included in the "interpreters" section. > nothing in devel. ??

I don't know much about the internal details of mysql. Perhaps you should contact the authors about your idea. I hope my answers make sense to you :-) Cheers, Chris -- Christian Schwarz Do you know [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], Debian GNU/Linux?
