Could not find working MySQL client Library

Hi,
Saw a post a few days ago by Zeddy Chirombe regarding this error while
building mysql++
 
I had the same error earlier today and wanted to share the solution. 

checking for MySQL library directory... /usr/lib/mysql
checking for MySQL include directory... /usr/include/mysql
checking for mysql_store_result in -lmysqlclient... no
configure: error: Could not find working MySQL client library!
 
 
You're building with MySQL 5.0 installed on your system. you need to use
4.1, as it says on http://tangentsoft.net/mysql++/
 
The build is looking for /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.14 ******
 
and with mysql 5.0 you'd have /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.15.***** and
though i tried, no amount of symlinks would fool mysql++ config script.
