MySQLdb building

[Dave Harrison]

When doing a python2.2 ./setup.py build on a Solaris 9 machine I get the following error that I just cant figure.

I have edited the setup.py file to point to my libraries and include files where they are (eg. /usr/local/mysql/include and /usr/local/include/python2.2) and to where my libraries are (ie. /usr/local/lib/python2.2 and /usr/local/mysql/include)

help anyone ?
