where is you libmysql installed and what kind of library
do you have?

If it is a dynamic library then it is very likely that
the library path does not match.

Did you add /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql (or wherever the library
is installed) to the file /etc/ld.so.conf? Don't forget to run
ldconfig afterwards.

If it is a static library than either the PATH to the library
is missing during the link process like for example
LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql

It is also possible and not uncommon that you have to link
explicitly against libz.a if you use the static version.

And finally: Look at config.log, there you can fine normally
the real reason why the check for the library fails.

Best regards
