MySQL Workbench

Trying to get MySQL Workbench working this weekend - to no avail. It kept complaining that I didnt have the right library files. As far as I could see in /usr/lib and /usr/lib/mysql all the necessary library files were there.

A fix was found on the MYSQL bug site:

I fixed this in following way in Ubuntu 9.04 (Just created a symlink in /usr/lib
directory)

cd /usr/lib
sudo ln -s libmysqlclient_r.so.15 libmysqlclient_r.so

and presto it worked!
