You should always be able to do a new install; As you didn't provide
the error from the installations, I can comment on why it didn't work :(
Anyway; you can fix the above by copying libmysqlclient.so.6.0 to /lib
and run 'ldconfig'. Another option is to add the path to where you
have libmysqlclient.so to /etc/ld.so.conf. You can get more details
with man 'ldconfig'.
Yours,
Monty
