Subject: RE: installation, ruby-mysql in OS X

I haven't done this but I think I know enough about OS X to help you a 
little.  Here goes,

I found libmysqlclient.a in /usr/local/mysql/lib and the mysql.h header 
file in /usr/local/mysql/include/

If you run 'find / -name mysql.h' you should find the include directory.
If you run 'find / -name libmysqlclient.a' you should find the lib 
directory.

These may be non standard install directories but you can still get the 
make file to run by using this command.

ruby extconf.rb --with-mysql-lib=/usr/local/mysql/lib 
--with-mysql-include=/usr/local/mysql/include/

After that, make sure your mysql server is running and just follow the 
make file.
