[courier-users] Courier with MySQL

[Jim Hohne]

Hi, I've been tearing my hair out for the past few days trying to get courier to compile with MySQL support.  I know the install doc says that I need mysql development libs, but I'm pretty sure I have them.  I've installed version 3.23.49 of mysql from source, the latest stable version.  Now the libraries for this are located in /usr/local/mysql/libs/mysql.  I add that to ld.so.conf, to my LDFLAGS environment variable, everywhere I can think of, to no avail.  Everytime I configure and compile, I run authlib/authinfo and mysql is never, ever in there.  I even downloaded and installed the MySQL++ thing thinking maybe that was how to get the devel libs, but pointing courier's configure to where those libraries were located had no effect as well.  I sure hope someone can help me out with this one as I am at my wit's end...a 300 Mhz Cyrix-II is not the ideal machine to compile courier on over and over and over and over again.   Thanks in advance,   Jim Hohne
