Why oh why would you want to install Kannel under /etc/rc.d/init.d ?!?!?!
sysV init scripts go there.

You don't need to have mySQL running when you configure and build kannel. you just
need to have the developemnt libraries for mySQL lying around somewhere the configure
script can get at them. on my development machine I don't even have mySQL installed.

Assuming that you are aware that using --prefix=<dir> causes the build process to
install all Kannel files under <dir>, this makes perfect sense.

Not AFAIK.
please use --prefix=/usr/local or maybe /usr and don't install kannel under the init
scripts directory.
