Note that the MySQL client library is not bundled anymore!

May 09, 2009 · Uncategorized · 2 Comments

Unable to get PHP configured to my specifications using the Ubuntu repositories, I decided to install it from source. However, I kept getting the error:

Note that the MySQL client library is not bundled anymore!

Not wanting to install MySQL from source, I found a package in the Ubuntu repositories that installed the necessary library files.

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev

After I installed that package, PHP was able to install successfully.

    Thank you very much.

    BTW, to people who are trying to install it on 64 bit systems, …don't forget to specify –with-libdir=64 as your configure argument ;)

    Bye!
