hi all! i am trying to install the latest mysql++ into my RH9 machine (mysql Ver 11.18
Distrib 3.23.54, for redhat-linux-gnu (i386) )...I used the rpm package but got
this error: error: Failed dependencies: libmysqlclient.so.12 is needed by mysql++-1.7.9-4.rh9

so I tried using the src package: mysql++-1.7.9-4.rh9.src.rpm

but when I tried automake, I got this error:

configure.in:11: your implementation of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE comes from an configure.in:11: old Automake version. You should recreate aclocal.m4 configure.in:11: with aclocal and run automake again. Makefile.am: required file `./INSTALL' not found Makefile.am: required file `./NEWS' not found Makefile.am: required file `./COPYING' not found Makefile.am: required file `./AUTHORS' not found Makefile.am: required file `./ChangeLog' not found examples/Makefile.am: required file `./depcomp' not found /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL /usr/share/automake-1.6/am/lang-compile.am: AMDEP does not appear in

AM_CONDITIONAL

any suggestions?

...by the way, how do I use the mysql++-gcc-3.2.2.patch.gz after gunzipping it?
it creates this file: mysql++-gcc-3.2.2.patch

do i need to chmod +x this file?

sorry...I am a newbie in Linux and mysql as well....

Thank you!
