GCC & MYSQL: "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient"

[cadbilbao]

Hi.

On Linux FC2 with mySQL 4.1, I'm trying to compile a very simple C
program
by using GCC, but I get this error message:

---------------------
[root@pc]# gcc -o hello -I'/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/mysql-4.1.9/include/'
-L'/usr/lib/mysql' -lmysqlclient -lz -lcrypt -lnsl -lm hello.c
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lmysqlclient
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
------------------

I checked:
--------------------
[root@pc]# /sbin/ldconfig -v | grep libmysqlclient
libmysqlclient_r.so.10 -> libmysqlclient_r.so.10.0.0
libmysqlclient.so.10 -> libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0

[root@pc]# echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/lib/mysql:

[root@pc]# find . -name "*libmysqlclient*"
./usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10.0.0
./usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.10
./usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient_r.so.10.0.0
./usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient_r.so.1
----------------------

What am I doing wrong? Regards.
