note 77299 added to install.unix

There is little or no documentation regarding the fact that MySQL Client Library isn't bundled with PHP anymore. The installation instructions need to be changed with, at the very least, some instructions for how to get PHP to recognize that the client library is installed. I realize that this may be a problem with licensing and as such, it's not possible to document too much regarding MySQL... I personally fumbled around with PHPNuke for a day or two before realizing that I was getting blank pages due to database problems. It would be nice to have a ./config option like --with-mysql-client-library='/path/to/libmysqlclient.so' at the very least... i still can't get PHP to recognize where the mysql client library is and MySQL's documentation is jumbled at best... ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.35 Probable Submitter: 65.82.197.82 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/77299 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77299/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77299/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77299/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77299/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77299/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77299/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/77299 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/77299 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
