Thanks everyone for your input. Your suggestions gave me some perspective
even if I didn't use them specifically.

Steve Holdaway's suggestion worked, viz:

1. Append the on-line packages to source.list

rooot@debian:~# echo deb http://packages.dotdeb.org squeeze all >>
/etc/apt/sources.list

2. Update and upgrade

rooot@debian:~# apt-get update
rooot@debian:~# apt-get upgrade

3. Install libmysqlclient

rooot@debian:~# apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

/usr/include/mysql now has some .h files in it


I have not worked in a development environment for 10 years. I had some
catching up to do.

Cheers

John
