Do an 'ldd' on the snort binary to list the dynamic dependencies.

Example:

[root@big-ole-pig snort]# ldd snort
libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x40025000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x40033000)
libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x40053000)
libmysqlclient.so.9 => /usr/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so.9 (0x4006a000)
libodbc.so.1 => /usr/lib/libodbc.so.1 (0x40095000)
libpq.so.2.1 => /usr/lib/libpq.so.2.1 (0x400d1000)
libssl.so.0 => /usr/lib/libssl.so.0 (0x400e3000)
libcrypto.so.0 => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0 (0x40111000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x401ca000)
libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x402ef000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x4031c000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x40332000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

The libmysqlclient library should (by default) be listed under the 
directory /usr/lib/mysql/


Hope that helps!
