Missing Dependency

I am trying to install proftpd-mysql using Add/Remove Software.

I can find a package but when it checks for dependencies I get the error "Missing Dependency libmysqlclient.so.15 needed by package proftpd-mysql".

I have the libmysqlclient.so.15 file located in the /usr/lib/mysql/ directory.

From another web search I was told to edit the /etc/ld.so.conf file to include the directory to those shared MySQL libraries and run ldconfig.

I still get the same error.

Any help is appreciated.

yum install proftpd-mysql produces the same results:

And which versions of mysql and profthd-mysql do you have installed or attempting to install???

These are the latest (for example) for FC5;

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...FC5.1.i386.rpm
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...6.fc5.i386.rpm

With a corrected /etc/yum.repos.d/fedora-core.repo file the command should install the latest proftpd-mysql package with all needed updates and requirements;

MySQL 5.0.18 - installed and working with other apps.
proftpd - 1.3.0-5.fc5.i386 - installed and working.
proftpd-mysql -1.3.0-5.fc5.i386 - unable to install.

I have tried the combination of proftpd and proftpd-mysql 1.3.0-6.fc5.i386 with the same results.

I think there is something broken in the rpm package that it is not looking in the correct place for libmysqlclient.so.15
