new install "incompatible libmysqlclient"
  • I am trying to install campsite on a machine for use as a newspaper for a school in Tacna, Peru. Our sysadmin set up a machine with Fedora Core 6, and 64-bit. I do not have much experience with fc6, mostly debian, so please bear with me on this.

    Anyway, I ran into some dependency problems with zlib and mysqlclient. I installed both using yum. Now, when I try to install, I get a libmysqlclient error:

    Testing install configuration...OK
    Please wait while checking modules configuration...
    Checking DATABASE module dependencies...OK
    Checking PARSER module dependencies.../usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so when searching for -lmysqlclient
    /usr/bin/ld: skipping incompatible /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a when searching for -lmysqlclient
    /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient
    collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
    Could not find mysqlclient library. Please install mysql-devel package.
    Could not find mysqlclient library. Please install mysql-devel package.
    There is a dependency problem. Please read the previous message and
    install the required program/package.

    Any ideas?
