Normally LD will look in a standard dir like /usr/lib (which i think is the 
default one)

ld -V will tell you more about that, however ldconfig doesn't cache all the 
libraries like

in Linux, it does  only the pathnames (AFAIK), there was something specific

and i have the strange feeling it has to do something with the Linux compat 
libraries

in FreeBSD.


in any way the best thing will be to tell the linker what to do -Wl,-L/new/lib.

but AFAIK dbmail configure script doesn't check if -lmysqlclient actually works?


i can hack a quick configure patch for that?


cheers
