Hi I'm having some trouble with getting RMySQL installed on my Ubuntu system. As the apt-get install version of R is 2.10.x I've reinstalled 2.12 the old fashion way by ./conf and make. But now when I shall install RMySQL I get 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. And in truth I cant find the headers or libraries anywhere on my comp, but I have MySQL up and running. I did install MySQL via apt-get so if anyone know where it put the different files I would love to know :).
Well, you should ask such questions on R-sig-debian or R-sig-db, but I presume you forgot that you would need MySQL-dev (or whatever it is called on Ubuntu), the development part of the MySQL installation.
