You need the libmysqlclient-dev package if you want to compile something with mysql. Did you install it?

Hello,

I am currently running Dovecot 2.1 on current Debian and need to upgrade to 2.2 to use the replication features.

I understand that I therefore need to compile Dovecot myself. I am using a MySQL database for users authentication, therefore I need to compile Dovecot with mysql support:
*./configure --with-mysql*
Unfortunately this terminates with:
*configure: error: Can't build with MySQL support: libmysqlclient not found*

I installed libmysqlclient from debian repos, but it does not help.

Also, how do I then connect the newly installed dovecot to my existing /etc/init.d/dovecot script?

Thank you.
Lucas
