-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ah, I didn't see that error! ./configure is checking for the libmysqlclient library (or similar library used to connect to a mysql server)...not for an actual mysql server at any address. Install the MySQL client libraries (mysql-devel if you're using Debian, I think). It should work then. Good catch, Tijl.
