I have Mandrake 9.2 which I have installed MySQL version 4.0.15 from the Mandrake 9.2 install CDs.

I wan't to create a database app using KDEvelop and MySQL using MySQL++ 1.7.9 as the API.

I anpacked the tarball in /usr/local.

When I ./configure all seems to run fine and the result is a config.h and Makefile are created.

When I go and issue the 'make' command, all goes wrong.

I have included the text of 'config.log' and some of the error messages that are displayed.

Hope this helps define the cause of my problems.

Regards Pete

## Config.log This file contains any messages produced by compilers while running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
