Hi, database-1.0.3 package does not compile on Centos 5 and Fedora with mysql installed due to not finding the libmysqlclient.so library which is located in /usr/lib/mysql/ instead of /usr/lib/
replacing line 54 in src/Makeconf.in with the following line fixes this MKOCTFILE = @MKOCTFILE@ -DHAVE_OCTAVE_$(ver) -v -L/usr/lib/mysql/ although this is not a perfect solution it works for me now (tested on Centos 5) A better solution is to change configure scripts to also set LDFLAGS correctly and add LDFLAGS usage in Makeconf.in MKOCTFILE = @MKOCTFILE@ -DHAVE_OCTAVE_$(ver) -v -L$LDFLAGS With kind regards ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ OpenSolaris 2009.06 is a cutting edge operating system for enterprises looking to deploy the next generation of Solaris that includes the latest innovations from Sun and the OpenSource community.
