Re: [cobalt-developers] libncurses mysql mess?

["Oliver Hingst" <oliverh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Sorry to hijack this thread.
I am using Apache 1.3.19 + PHP4.0.5RC2 + MySQL 3.23.36.
Everything runs, but I have to use PHP4 built-in MySQL driver.  I can't use
the standard "--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql" because I get an "unresolved
symbol error in libmysqlclient-10.0.0: my_message_no_curses".  Have you come
across this ?
