Hrmm, something happened to my mysql installation. I've redone it, it
definitely works. All the libs are in /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql:
[root@mail sqwebmail-1.0]# ls -la /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/
total 960
drwxr-sr-x 2 mysql mysql 4096 Oct 23 11:35 .
drwxr-sr-x 3 mysql mysql 4096 Oct 23 11:35 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 mysql mysql 11086 Oct 23 11:35 libdbug.a

-rw-r--r-- 1 mysql mysql 100468 Oct 23 11:35 libnisam.a
This time my mysql is installed from the source. It shows up in an
ldconfig:
[root@mail sqwebmail-1.0]# ldconfig -p | grep -i mysql
libmysqlclient.so.10 (libc6) =>
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10
libmysqlclient.so (libc6) =>
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so
Bah, I'm at a loss now. My Makefile has the following:
LDFLAGS = -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql -lmysqlclient
LIBS = -lz
I've even redone my vpopmail installation and it finds the mysql
libraries, and is properly interacting with the mysql database.
Starting to think that it's hair pulling time.
