LinuxQuestions.org - amarok with mysql

hi,

i have some troubles with building amarok with mysql. ./configure claims to have found mysql , compilation doesn't give any errors, but still when i start the new amarok i can't select mysql ( there is a dropdown menu with sqllite though). i am using -current, mysql 5.0.37. any ideas?

if you have some spare time at your hands and either -11.0 or -current, could you run this slackbuild and report, wether it works for you? you'll need of course the source and the .options files.

Code:

#!/bin/sh

CWD=`pwd`

TMP=/tmp

PKG=$TMP/package-amarok



# Set the config option variables if they are not already set:

if [ -r ./KDE.options ]; then

  . ./KDE.options

fi



# The global options may be overridden here (if needed):

if [ -r ./local.options ]; then

  . ./local.options

fi



rm -rf $PKG

mkdir -p $PKG/usr



# Avoid a version number in .la files:

if [ -d /usr/lib/qt ]; then

  QTDIR=/usr/lib/qt

fi

cd $TMP

echo "Building amarok-$VERSION.tar.bz2..."

tar xjvf $CWD/amarok-$VERSION.tar.bz2



# I *hate* it when an "a" release blows off updating the directory name.  Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

# Commented out post 1.4.0a...

#cd amarok-1.4.0 || exit 1

cd amarok-$VERSION

chown -R root:root .
