Hello,
I had this problem where in after I installed MySQLdb for python, and I try to import mysqldb, python complained that it couldnt find libmysql.so.14
The only deviation I did in the install was explicitly point to mysql_config.
I had to maunally copy libmysql.so.14 to /usr/lib so that it was in the path.
MySQLdb knows where the libs for mysql are, so I am lost as to why I needed to do the copy.
It knows where it is at link time, but at run time, it is not on the loader path.
Try setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH and if that works, fix your system loader path (/etc/ld.so.conf).

Also see the man pages for ld.so and ldconfig
