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.


Thx for the help
Joel
