Here's what's going on, snipped.

Any variation on:

[root@greatwall barnyard-0.1.0]# ./configure --enable-mysql \
 --with-mysql-includes=/usr/local/mysql-3.23.58/include \
 --with-mysql-libraries=/usr/local/mysql-3.23.58/libmysql

or

 --with-mysql-libraries=/usr/lib/mysql

fails, thus:

/* snip */

checking for strerror... yes
checking /usr/local/mysql-3.23.58/include/mysql.h usability... yes
checking /usr/local/mysql-3.23.58/include/mysql.h presence... yes
checking for /usr/local/mysql-3.23.58/include/mysql.h... yes
checking for mysql_connect in -lmysqlclient... no

**********************************************
  ERROR: unable to find mysqlclient library
  checked in the following places
        /usr/lib/mysql
**********************************************

/* snip */


[root@greatwall /usr/lib/mysql]# ls
libmysqlclient_r.so.10      libmysqlclient.so.10
libmysqlclient_r.so.10.0.0  libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0


[root@greatwall /usr/lib/mysql]# less /etc/ld.so.conf
/usr/kerberos/lib
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/lib/qt-3.1/lib
/usr/lib/mysql
/usr/local/mysql-3.23.58/libmysql




It's interesting that google comes up with many variants on this
question, but no apparent answers...
