libpcre.so.3 missing

Hi all.

I'm testing out the backup function of mysql-administrator on our Linux 
server. I currently have a bash backup script, but restoring currently 
requires me and my command-line skills :)

Anyway, I've created a backup profile and scheduled it, but it dies 
silently. I had a look at the cron job, found the line added, and run 
this from a console:

/opt/mysql-gui-tools-5.0/mabackup -d /root/sql -x Assets -c root 
Assets_backup

This provides the error:

/opt/mysql-gui-tools-5.0/mabackup: error while loading shared libraries: 
libpcre.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

On this system, I have ( in /usr/lib/ ):

screamer lib # ls -l libpcre*  
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 150774 Jan 16 12:41 libpcre.a

screamer lib #

 ... and these belong to the package dev-libs/libpcre-6.6 ( on a Gentoo 
system ).

Who knows if I can create a sym-link to provide the missing 
libpcre.so.3? Do I need a particular version of libpcre?

Thanks.

Dan
