When trying to compile any MySQL apps, including the testdb example I
repeatedly get the following error:
Free Pascal Compiler version 1.0.6 [2002/05/23] for i386

Linking insertcodes
insertCodes.pas(43) Error: Error while linking
Closing script ppas.sh
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient
I have tried symlinking libraries, have checked /etc/ld.so.conf to ensure that
the mysql libraries were there etc. etc. etc.
Any idea how to tell ld where to find it ?
I am running FPC 1.0.6 on RedHat 7.3 full install.
Ciao
