That's what the mysql_config script is for:
tim@cane:~$ mysql_config
Usage: /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config [OPTIONS]
Options:
--cflags [-I'/usr/local/mysql/include/mysql']
--libs [ -L'/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql' -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt
-lm ]
--socket [/tmp/mysql.sock]
--port [3306]
--version [3.23.30-gamma]
tim@cane:~$ mysql_config --libs
-L'/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql' -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lm
I'm not sure what the best way to use it in PHP is, but hopefully
someone familiar with ext/mysql/config.m4 could fix that. If not,
let me know and I'll try to look at it some time.
