Does /etc/rc.d/rc.mysqld exist? If it does try renaming it to *.old
then setting a symbolic link from rc.mysqld to rc.mysqld.new.

This is odd.
Run "/lib/libc.so.6" and see what version it reports. In my mirror it's
going to be 2.3.1, which makes me wonder why your mysqld wants symbols
from 2.3.2. Where did you get your slackware/ap/mysql-*.tgz from?

The "problem" is Slack isn't a RPM-based distro so it lacks the RPM
database. If "ls" works on your box then the fileutils package is
installed. If "who" works then sh-utils is installed. /bin/sh should
be a symbolic link to /bin/bash. If the command "which perl" returns a
specific location (as opposed to "which: no perl in (<lotsa'
different directories>)", the package is installed. If all these are
true then -- and *only* then -- can you force RPM to install the package
with the appropriate command line argument.
If I were in your shoes I think I would try working within the Slackware
package tools before I went to a RPM, though.
