My problem is that when I installed Slackware I told it to install
MySQL. I thought it did so. I looked around and found in the
directory /etc/rc.d/ a file called rc.mysqld.new wich I read.
It said to make this file executable so that it would start the
daemon at system boot. I made it executable. Needless to say it didn't
work.
So I read a little further. The same files says
to build the grant tables by switching to the mysql
user with the su command and running
mysql_install_db.

This gives me this error:
/usr/libexec/mysqld: /lib/libpthread.so.0: version `GLIBC_2.3.2' not found (required by /usr/libexec/mysqld)
Installation of grant tables failed!

That is when I figured I'd just try to reinstall for the heck of
it and of course now using the rpm --install command with the
MySQL rpm I'm getting the same problem Mr. Thorne is getting.

bash-2.05b# rpm --install MySQL-server-4.0.16-0.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        fileutils is needed by MySQL-server-4.0.16-0
        sh-utils is needed by MySQL-server-4.0.16-0
        /bin/sh is needed by MySQL-server-4.0.16-0
        /usr/bin/perl is needed by MySQL-server-4.0.16-0

I have posted to multiple news groups and forums. Will someone please
help out the Noobs?
