Sorry to kick this one up.
But, ... untill yesterday I had no problem.
My /etc/ld.so.conf is:
Code: [Select]
include ld.so.conf.d/*.conf
/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.2
/usr/lib/mysql
/usr/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib/qt-3.3/lib

In /etc/fpc.cfg the following is the library search path:
Code: [Select]
# searchpath for libraries
-Fl/usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.2
-Fl/lib;/usr/lib
-Fl/lib/usr/mysql

When I check the installed packages, this is the result:
Code: [Select]
[matthijs@linux testdb]$ rpm -qa | grep mysql
mysql-devel-3.23.58-14
php-mysql-4.3.10-3.2
mysql-3.23.58-14
mysql-server-3.23.58-14

still I get the dreaded "cannot find" error. What else is there to be
done. It worked before, so I must overlook something.


[edit] Of course do the files lmysqlclient (and mysqlcleint exists in
the library path.

Never mind.  The library search path contained a typo.
("-Fl/lib/usr/mysql" instead of "-Fl/usr/lib/mysql")
But this leaves another question. Why won't the linker find the
libraries through the symbolic links in /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-
linux/3.4.2 or /usr/lib?
