[Bookbase-help] bookbase install error "I can't find mysql.h."

[Michael B. <bm...@ya...>]

I tried to install bookbase and it could not find
mysql.h.  You might want to add to your FAQ that you
have to install the mysql-devel package as well as
some kind of C complier like GCC to install bookbase.

Output of error:
