Re: [PATCH] RE: Error compiling MySQL support on RedHat 9 - SOLVED!

After (and before) applying patch I got:

~/src/kannel/gateway-cvshead/$ autoconf
configure.in:195: error: do not use LIBOBJS directly, use AC_LIBOBJ (see section `AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS'
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.

:( Humm I said.
I read info Autoconf (see section `AC_LIBOBJ vs LIBOBJS' as warning said)
made another change to configure.in
then autoconf ran okay but configure file generated had problems:
.......
checking for getopt... yes
./configure: line 6978: syntax error near unexpected token `done'
./configure: line 6978: `done'
./configure: eval: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
./configure: eval: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file
./configure: eval: line 1: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `"'
./configure: eval: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file

Now I'm stuck :(

autoconf --version
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57

on redhat 9.1

attached patch with Rene's change & additional AC_LIBOBJ change
