Subject: Using Mkmf to Verify Libraries


Hi,

I'm trying to use the 'mkmf' library to determine if a given library is 
installed.

I have two identical machines.

On machine 1:
find_library('mysqlclient', 'mysql_query', '/path/to/lib')  =>  true


On machine 2:
find_library('mysqlclient', 'mysql_query', '/path/to/lib')  =>  false


I'm stumped.  Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

libmysqlclient.a is installed in the exact same location on both machines.

Regards,
Steven
