I'm at a loss as to what to do. I upgraded Mysql recently and broke DBD::mysql. When I make test It starts failing all sorts of test saying my server isnt running. If I run some tests by hand (10dsnlist.t) it says
install_driver(mysql) failed: Can't load '/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5 +.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/auto/DBD/mysql/mysql.so' for module DBD: +:mysql: libmysqlclient.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such + file or directory at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/Dy +naLoader.pm line 229. at (eval 1) line 3 Compilation failed in require at (eval 1) line 3. Perhaps a required shared library or dll isn't installed where expecte +d at t/10dsnlist.t line 45
I've read the docs, and tried to use the static libraries, but to no avail. Can anyone help?
