Hi, thanks for the patch. I have a few questions before applying it : - I prefer that static linking for libmysqlclient.a should remain default. This is because MySQL often change its structure headers so the runtime library should exactly match the one it was compiled with, or you will experiment crashes. This can also cause problems if PHP is loading it's own version of LibMySQL in the same Apache module. Let's add maybe some parameters to install.neko to turn this off when compiling for Debian, if ok for you. - Why is `pkg-config --cflags apr-1` needed ? How do you ensure that apr-1 is installed on the system ? - Could you elaborate on -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib/neko usage ? - I added /usr/include/apache-1.3 a few days ago on CVS - why removing all other directories in search_includes and libraries ? they are useful for non-Debian on non-Linux systems.
