Dear Mason

Thanks for guiding. Now the problem is that the fedora project says that mysql (for me the version is mysql-5.0.45-6.fc7) contains mysqlclient. I did a search in rpm find. It shows mysql-client rpm for other variants of linux (Mandriva, SuSE etc) but not for fedora 7. How can I get mysql-client? Should I run yum update mysql?

Emmanual has found your answer...

"Following the doc (cfr http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=blob;f=INSTALL.fedora7;h=53deb1648a18a6cda8b742ceda2fdb835b6ecbb5;hb=HEAD),

the package name is 'MySQL-devel'"
