Description
I found that I had to add lib/mysql to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for a copy of MySQL installed within the IPP tree. I modified line 259-260 of my psconfig.csh file (IPP 2.3) to read as:
# set LIBRARY_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, used to find libraries
set libdir = {$PSCONFDIR}/{$PSCONFIG}/lib:{$PSCONFDIR}/{$PSCONFIG}/lib/mysql
I don't know if this should be permanently set? This came up when Kapa tried to run within the psphot program and couldn't find the libmysql library. When I set it as above it worked and flashed up a plot on the screen in the midst of the psphot processing.

mysql is particularly perverse in this respect. Even if we supply --libdir=foo and --includedir==bar entries, it still insists on putting the libraries in foo/mysql and the header files in bar/mysql.
There may be a more elegant solution, but for now I have added these special locations to the construction of CPATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH, LIBRARY_PATH.
