mysql development package?

[benk]

Is there a mysql development package for Ubuntu? I see a mysql-client, mysql-server, mysql-common but nothing that specifically says development.

The reason why I'm asking is that I'm trying to install a perl module (DBD::mSQL) via CPAN and it's asking for the mysql includes directory. I can't find it with the regular mysql packages but when I download the mysql binary there is definitely an includes package in there.

These are the repositories that I have in /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-updates main restricted

deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-updates main restricted

deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main universe multiverse restricted

deb-src http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy main universe multiverse restricted

deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security main restricted

deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security main restricted

deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe

deb-src http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy-security universe

deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe

deb-src http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy universe

deb http://ca.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu breezy multiverse

I think you might need libmysqlclient. That should install the includes, etc... HTH

I think I found the place to solve this question

http://www.wolfe.id.au/2010/12/06/installing-ruby-with-rvm-on-ubuntu-10-10/

"Install Mysql client and development package.
sudo apt-get install mysql-client libmysqlclient-dev"

so probably the "libmysqlclient-dev" has to be installed
