Hi.

Working on Linux Fedora Core 2.

I'm programming an application which requires version 14 of the MySQL Client
libraries. Now I've got version 10:
---------------
[root@pc]# mysql_config --libs
-L'/usr/lib/mysql' -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm

[root@pc]# locate mysqlclient
/usr/src/mysql-3.23.58/libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.so
/usr/src/mysql-3.23.58/libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.a
/usr/src/mysql-3.23.58/libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.so.10
/usr/src/mysql-3.23.58/libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0
/usr/src/mysql-3.23.58/libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.lai
/usr/src/mysql-3.23.58/libmysql/.libs/libmysqlclient.la
/usr/src/mysql-3.23.58/libmysql/libmysqlclient.la
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.la
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.a
/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10
-------------------

So, I downloaded 'MySQL-client-4.1.14-0.i386.rpm' and installed it:
[root@pc]# rpm -Uvh --force MySQL-client-4.1.14-0.i386.rpm

However, I don't find 'libmysqlclient.so.14'

[root@pc]# /sbin/ldconfig -v | grep libmysqlclient

libmysqlclient_r.so.10 -> libmysqlclient_r.so.10.0.0
libmysqlclient.so.10 -> libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0
--------------------

Could anybody tell me please what I am doing wrong? When I find it,
must I perform a soft link to these libraries from '/usr/lib/mysql/'?.

Thank you very much.

The package is 'MySQL-shared-compat-4.1.13-0.i386.rpm' instead of 'MySQL-4.1.13-0.i386.rpm'.
