Nagios compile error with MySQL

[Anoop Atre]

Below is the message I get when I try to compile with MySQL support.

I even tried to compile with
--with-mysql-lib=/usr/lib/msql --with-mysql-inc=/usr/include/mysql

but got the same message. Nagios seems pretty trained monkey so
I know it's got to be something on the system or could be the su -l
issue that had come up in the faqs on someother topic (?)

I'm compiling with all default settings or as suggested in the
documentation.
I had done a make clean prior to each attempt.

*** MySQL library could not be located... **************************

You chose to compile Nagios with MySQL support, but I was unable to
locate the MySQL library on your system.  If the library is
installed,  use the --with-mysql-lib and --with-mysql-inc arguments
to specify the locations of the MySQL library and include files.

NOTE: After you install the necessary libraries on your system:
      1. Make sure /etc/ld.so.conf has an entry for the directory in
         which the MySQL libraries are installed.
      2. Run 'ldconfig' to update the run-time linker options.
      3. Run 'make clean' in the Nagios distribution to clean out
         any old references to your previous compile.
      4. Rerun the configure script.
