try restarting your mysql?

service mysqld restart

[creed.sin]

no same error

[Lighta]

It's quite explicite if you read the configure error :

"configure: error: MySQL not found or incompatible"

You need libmysqlclient-dev

Also you don't need to configure / compile in root, in fact if you do that you'll need to be root to run it or shut it down. Never good to run a server as root.

[creed.sin]

libmysqlclient-dev no available package..

if your server is 64bit its likely your existent mysql libs are 64bit, if they're then you have to run configure with --enable-64bit
