Hi Oliver, a few things: 1) Since this question involves software which has not been released yet, it should really be on gnucash-devel, not gnucash-user. 2) What are you running on? Linux? Windows? What distribution? 3) Assuming you are on Linux, do you have a file /usr/lib/dbd/libdbdmysql.so (maybe /lib/dbd/libdbdmysql.so).
