Re: configure error:

I'm using precise (12.04) here.

I think you need libmysqlclient18. Ask on some ubuntu list if that didn't help

Should be pulled in automatically since libmysqlclient-dev depends on libmysqlclient18.

checking for mysql_init in -lmysqlclient... no

It's definitely in there:

nm -D /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmysqlclient.so.18.0.0 2>/dev/null |grep mysql_init 0000000000036ac0 T mysql_init 0000000000036c90 T mysql_init_character_set

...

I have installed mysql_server, mysql_client, and libmysqlclient-dev. I have removed these packages and then re-installed and still get the same configure error.

libzdb doesn't need or use either mysql-server or mysql-client. Just libmysqlclient-dev should be sufficient.
