Hi,

Saw a post a few days ago by Zeddy Chirombe regarding this error while building mysql++

I had the same error earlier today and wanted to share the solution.

checking for MySQL library directory... /usr/lib/mysql checking for MySQL include directory... /usr/include/mysql checking for mysql_store_result in -lmysqlclient... no configure: error: Could not find working MySQL client library!

You're building with MySQL 5.0 installed on your system. you need to use 4.1, as it says on http://tangentsoft.net/mysql++/

The build is looking for /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.14 ******

and with mysql 5.0 you'd have /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.15.***** and though i tried, no amount of symlinks would fool mysql++ config script.
