I have been trying for several weeks to build DBD-mysql 2.9004 against perl5.8.5 on a SunOS 5.8 system. mysql 3.22.30 is the default version and provides the shared librariers to the system (such libmysqlclient.so).

What is the minimum version of mysql to successfully build DBD-mysql 2.9004? Is this information contained in the documentation anywhere? I have not found it.

I suspect that you need 4.0 or 4.1. I have compiled 2.9004 against 4.1.

A couple months ago, I tried to build DBD-mysql 2.9004 against MySQL 3.23.58, which is the highest released 3.x version, and it failed with missing symbol errors.

It would be *really nice* if MySQL AB will release a 3.23.59 some time, which among other things adds the symbol that the latest DBD-mysql requires. Since 3.23.x is "still supported".
