[fpc-pascal]mySQL

[James Mills]

I'm trying to use mySQL as the database system for my program,
however...

Linking testdb
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient
testdb.pp(84) Warning: Error while linking

I have installed fpc using the .deb packages of Debian, but I've
installed mysql from the sources...

Could someone help here please? thanks. I'd like to know how exactly to
fix this problem, without trying to muck up my system.

thanks
James
