Hello everyone,

I am having some difficulties installing the RMySQL package from sources
(not available via the R Package Installer GUI, probably for the same
reasons). Just installed a fresh instance of MySQL, which I could find in:
/usr/local/mysql-5.6.17-osx10.7-x86_64


This is what I get:

$ R CMD INSTALL RMySQL_0.9-3.tar.gz.tar.gz
...
Configuration error:
  could not find the MySQL installation include and/or library
  directories.  Manually specify the location of the MySQL
  libraries and the header files and re-run R CMD INSTALL.


I tried:

$ export PKG_CPPFLAGS="/usr/local/mysql-5.6.17-osx10.7-x86_64/include/"
$ export PKG_LIBS="/usr/local/mysql-5.6.17-osx10.7-x86_64/lib/"
$ R CMD INSTALL RMySQL_0.9-3.tar.gz.tar.gz
...
In file included from RS-MySQL.c:22:
./RS-MySQL.h:32:10: fatal error: 'mysql.h' file not found
#include <mysql.h>
         ^
1 error generated.


Also tried:

$ R CMD INSTALL
--configure-args='--with-mysql-dir=/usr/local/mysql-5.6.17-osx10.7-x86_64'
RMySQL_0.9-3.tar.gz.tar.gz

(with the same result)

I'd be grateful for any hint, thanks in advance,
Adrian
