You can install libmysqlclient15 and libmysqlcleint15-dev and build programs against it. Be careful though that you will get very bad segfaults if you try e.g. linking libnss-mysql againt libmysqlclient14 and libpam-mysql against libmysqlclient15 and have symbols from both in your binary. Same goes for apache's auth-mysql and php-mysql... as long as they are kept separated you can choose your libmysqlclient version as you like. (this is why the release managers choosed one library version as "default" for Sarge) bye, -christian- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
