I met a problem when I followed the "SCRATCH INSTALLATION "
When I downloaded the MySQL and inputted "./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --enable-large-files --enable-shared=yes --with-readline". I met "Linuxthreads" problem, and the "make" and "make install" didn't work.
Please give me some advise.

Thanks

from the very same scratch install.

** INSTALLATION NOTE **
If you are having Linuxthreads problems upon onfigure, just execute the following command:
echo '/* Linuxthreads */' >> /usr/include/pthread.h
