If you have a system install the compounds you add must be compatable with
what exist. If not you are going to have problems.

Since the compatible connector connector to what exist is not available than
you must install a complete system.

Think of that this way. If you have a Mandrake 10.1 system with MySQL that has
been customized for Mandrake 10.1 you can not install a connector for
Mandrake LE of Mandriva 2006 and expect the system to work. You must
reinstall all of MySQL but immediately you have a problem as MySQL interfaces
with KDE. Now if you modify any portion of Mandrake's version of KDE their is
a 90+% chance that the system will fail. No that is not correct make that a
99+% of system failure. Been there done that got the merit badge no thinks.
Just start with the idea that you best start off and do it right to began
with ie recompile.
