[jdev] Jabber Can't Find MySQL

[Dave Jarvis]

Ok, folks.

Here's what I did:

1. Downloaded mysql-standard-4.0.18-pc-linux-i686.tar.gz
2. cd /usr/local
3. tar zxf mysql-standard-4.0.18-pc-linux-i686.tar.gz
3. ln -s mysql-standard-4.0.18-pc-linux-i686 mysql
4. Followed instructions in mysql/INSTALL-BINARY
	- This fully installs MySQL into /usr/local/mysql
5. cd /usr/local/src/jabberd-2.0s2
6. ./configure

Didn't work (couldn't find mysql).  So I tried:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql

Didn't work (couldn't find mysql).

FYI:

# ll /usr/local/mysql

Looks like everything is there.  Everything seemed to have run 
correctly.  Why won't the configure script find MySQL, even when I tell 
it exactly where its located?

Thanks!

Dave
