Weird (unlikely) error in mythzoneminder (configure related)

Hi,

I've just realised that for some reason I do not have the mysql
development headers installed on the box I usually build myth on. It
seems mythtv doesn't need them as its db access is wrapped up inside the
QT layer.

But mythzoneminder includes mysql/mysql.h directly and the configure
routine does not check for it's presence.

Just thought I'd point it out :)

Let me know if you'd rather a ticket, but this is a fairly trivial thing
so didn't do anything formal :)

noticed the same thing, solved it by installing the necessary packets, but I
noticed they might be not be used at all hmmm...

The only part of Myth that needs mysql/mysql.h is mythzmserver. which
uses the mysqlclient library directly rather than use QT so it can be
installed on machines that don't have QT or Myth installed. If you don't
need MythZoneMinder just disable it and you wont have any problems
compiling.
