brightstar2# ls /usr/local/lib/mysql
libdbug.a               libmysqlclient.a        libmysqlclient_r.a     
libmysqld.a             libvio.a
libheap.a               libmysqlclient.la       libmysqlclient_r.la    
libmysqlservices.a      plugin
libmyisam.a             libmysqlclient.so       libmysqlclient_r.so    
libmystrings.a
