Hi :) So, it's a race between you and Heinrich then :) I like the idea of different people contributing builds as the need arises. More a community effort and it spreads the knowledge a bit. Regards from Tom :)

You have to hunt around for it a bit, what with the convoluted build and deliver process that the build goes through, but it can be found when all is said and done. One thing I do not know yet is whether or not the absolute path to the library has to be give at configure time (using autogen.sh). Certainly this was the case for Mac, but I am assuming/hoping that this is not required for Linux (however, I could be wrong). Be aware that building the connector requires extra switches to be activated at configure time when you use ./autogen/sh. These switches are the following : --enable-ext-mysql-connector --with-libmysql-path="/Users/alex/DevHack/mysql-connector-c-6.0.2osx10.5-x86-32bit" Like I said, the second switch may well be optional on Linux, but I had to specify it when building the connector on Mac. I am currently trying to just build a working LibreOffice installation set on a *buntu box I happen to have laying around, so I will rebuild with the corresponding connector switch option once/if that completes. If I then manage to get something out of it, I'll put it up on the Extensions site next to the Mac connector.
