HI guys.

I've posted this before but it got lost in the noise (I changed the 
subject of the original message).

Here's how to fix your problem with mysql.

(this refers to 0.1.0 only!!)

Edit the configure.in file.

On line 285 you will see:

AC_CHECK_LIB(mysqlclient, mysql_connect, FOUND=yes, FOUND=no)

change it so it reads:

AC_CHECK_LIB(mysqlclient, mysql_real_connect, FOUND=yes, FOUND=no)

Then, save configure.in

Once you have made this change you will need to re-generate the 
configure
script using tools that are part of GNU autoconf and GNU automake.  Run 
the
following commands in the order they are shown:

# aclocal
# autoheader
# automake
# autoconf

Once you have done this, try running configure again using 
- --enable-mysql.

- -Jeff
