Re: libmysqlclient : compiler can not find ?

I'm trying to get php installed and the ./confiure is kicking out this error. you're confusing me. suppose you enlighten me why you think the apache forum is where I should be posting this... why did you even bother reply unless you had something positve to contribute?

./configure --with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --with-mysql=/usr/lib/mysql --prefix=/usr/local/apache2/php --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/apache2/php --enable-force-cgi-redirect --disable-cgi --with-zlib --with-bz2 --with-gettext --with-gdbm --enable-mbstring --with-gd --enable-gd-imgstarttf --enable-gd-native-tff

this is the error:
configure: error: Cannot find libmysqlclient under /usr/local

this is the location and content that the mysql-3.23.58-14.rpm installation created:
[root@localhost mysql]# pwd
/usr/lib/mysql
[root@localhost mysql]# ls
libmysqlclient_r.so.10 libmysqlclient.so.10 mysqlbug
libmysqlclient_r.so.10.0.0 libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0 mysql_config

should this "libmysqlclient" be a symbolic link in /usr/local pointing to a specific file in /usr/lib/mysql ?
