Thanks for the reply.
The line is there. ldconfig was re-run as root.
same result when building
...
L/usr/lib/qt-3.1/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a -lqt-
mt -lXext -lX11 -lm -lpthread
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lXext
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [mysqlcc] Error 1
Check that /usr/X11R6/lib is in /etc/ld.so.conf and re-run 'ldconfig' (as
root).
Guess I should give up for now. If it's helpful I am willing to keep
trying suggestions though.
