I am new to RTG and I am trying to install the rtg-0.7.4 package.
I installed "mysql" and changed the password for root (mysqladmin -u
root password xxxx).  I tested mysql by signing on and off.
Then, after "tar -xvzf rtg*.tar.gz", I run "./configure".
I get the following problem.
......
......
checking whether time.h and sys/time.h may both be included... yes
checking whether struct tm is in sys/time.h or time.h... time.h
checking return type of signal handlers... void
checking for gettimeofday... yes
checking for strerror... yes
checking for strtoll... yes
configure: error: Cannot find MySQL headers.  Use --with-mysql= to
specify non-default path.


SO, I did a "which mysql",  ran "./configure --with-mysql=/usr/bin" and got
.....
.....
checking return type of signal handlers... void
checking for gettimeofday... yes
checking for strerror... yes
checking for strtoll... yes
configure: error: Cannot find MySQL header files under /usr/bin

SO, I tried ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/lib/mysql

NORMALY header files are in the "devel" packages.  I checked my CD's
for mysql development RPMS and I cannot find it.

has anybody had any success installing RTG under SLES or OpenSuSE?
