Hi !
I have downloaded the MySQL-devel-5.0.51a-0.glibc23.i386.rpm and I am trying to build my application statically with glibc. I get the following error during the linking time.

./lib/out/linux/debug32/mysql/libmysqlclient_r.a(mf_pack.o)(.text+0x8dc): In function `expand_tilde':
: warning: Using 'getpwnam' in statically linked applications requires at runtime the shared libraries from the glibc version used for linking

please help me to solve this problem. Is there any libmysql library that will not require glibc library at runtime so that I can statically include the library in my program.

How can I create an application that will be universal and can run in any linux distro.

Thanks & Regards
