Problem building mysql gem

I’ve just switched to Fedora and am trying to do a “gem install mysql”.
Right at the beginning, I’m getting the error

find_library: checking for mysql_query() in -lmysqlclient…

  • no

“gcc -o conftest -I. -I/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/i686-linux -I.
-I/usr/local/include -g
-O2 conftest.c -L’/usr/local/lib’ -Wl,-R’/usr/local/lib’ -L’/usr/lib’
-Wl,-R’/
usr/lib’ -rdynamic -Wl,-export-dynamic -lruby-static -lmysqlclient
-ldl -l
crypt -lm -lc”
conftest.c: In function ‘t’:
conftest.c:3: error: ‘mysql_query’ undeclared (first use in this
function)

I’m sure this is something that I need to install in Fedora, but I’m not
sure which package would have this. Can anyone offer any advice?
