Will these bindings even work with 1.8.4? According to the readme in
the gem package:
Requirement
MySQL 4.0.22/4.1.13/5.0.11
Ruby 1.8.2
I have ruby 1.8.4 and mysql 5.0.22.
Also, what the heck is this all about, I never had to do this before to
get a rails app running? What changed? Is this a compile option I
missed when I compiled ruby itself?
