libmysqlclient.so.12 error when I start snort.

[John Brewer <John.Brewer () Sun COM>]

Hello experts!!! I am trying to run snort with a mysql database on a solaris9 box, well when I try and start snort , I 
get this error...


# snort -v
ld.so.1: snort: fatal: libmysqlclient.so.12: open failed: No such file or directory
Killed

I configured it using --with-myql=/usr/local/mysql

and I know all the mysql libraries are there...

# cd /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
# ls -l

Is it because the files are linked??? It should not care right??? Any suggestions would be great.

thanks
