[rt-users] Post-install RT error

Thanks for the feedback, but apparently, the problem was with an older
perl install (5.005).  RT was calling a script called DynaLoader.pm, which
in turn was apparently calling libmysqlclient.so.9.  I had upgraded
recently to perl 5.6.1 via CPAN, though, and that version was living in
/usr/local/bin.  I symlinked /usr/bin/perl to that perl executable, and it
all started working.  No more missing libmysqlclient.so.9 errors.  I can
only surmise that the latest installation of MySQL (3.23) is updated past
the point that DynaLoader.pm could handle it.  I'm not familiar with
DynaLoader.pm, and according to my Debian package manager, it was
installed with the perl-5.005-base package.

I hope that might help somebody, and I'll stay around if anyone has any
more questions for me.
