You need to install the mysql client development libraries.
On SUSE systems, I believe the package is called
libmysqlclient-devel .

Configuration error:
could not find the MySQL installation include and/or library
directories. Manually specify the location of the MySQL
libraries and the header files and re-run R CMD INSTALL.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Define and export the 2 shell variables PKG_CPPFLAGS and
PKG_LIBS to include the directory for header files (*.h)
and libraries, for example (using Bourne shell syntax):
export PKG_CPPFLAGS="-I"
export PKG_LIBS="-L -lmysqlclient"
Re-run the R INSTALL command:
R CMD INSTALL RMySQL_.tar.gz
2. Alternatively, you may pass the configure arguments
--with-mysql-dir= (distribution directory)
or
--with-mysql-inc= (where MySQL header files reside)
--with-mysql-lib= (where MySQL libraries reside)
in the call to R INSTALL --configure-args='...'
R CMD INSTALL --configure-args='--with-mysql-dir=DIR' RMySQL_.tar.gz
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘RMySQL’
* removing ‘/root/R/i686-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.12/RMySQL’
Any ideas how to proceed from here? I am quite a newbie in LINUX
How do I find the mysql.h ?
using find / -name mysql.h but nothing there?
Did I use it right?
Any other ideas? How do I set this right?
Thank you
