Hi ,

The CR 6664712 : mysql_config provides incorrect link library 
configuration talks about patching of mysql_config to provide the -R 
/usr/mysql/5.0/lib/mysql option so that other programs can  use it which 
depends on mysql .As such mysql binaries doesn't need this path to be 
set and I would expect the programs to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to run 
itself .
However this is not what it looks like .

Question :
Is it appropriate to patch the mysql_config with a hard coded path of -R 
/usr/mysql/5.0/lib/mysql as this would change each time a different 
version is used .How do other components handle this ?

Thoughts/Suggestions ?

Awaiting inputs
Regards
