The command you posted -- which I quoted in my previous response -- 
doesn't have any -l flags to tell the linker to use these libraries. 
The -L flags merely tell the linker where to look for libraries, not 
which ones to use.  Put "-lmysqlpp -lmysqlclient" at the end of the 
command line.  If you study Makefile.simple, you'll see this.
