Well, from what that says: "/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so"
knows nothing about the symbols 'compress' or 'uncompress'.  Check and make
sure that zlib (update to 1.1.4 if you're not already) is known and linked
with it.  Try a 'ldd /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/libmysqlclient.so' and see
what you come up with.

Did you build the mysql package on another box and move it over?

I'm assuming you _want_ MySQL support.  :)  If not use the ./configure
--with-out-mysql to skip it.  It seems that mysql isn't quite installed right
on the sensor you're trying to deploy on.

Hope that helps!
