hmmmm.  Strange that Ubuntu is not tracking Debian 
'testing' versions.  I just ran this as root to install to 
freshen our build environment:

#  apt-get install g++ libmysqlclient15-dev

and that same version (I pulled it from the external FTP site 
just now) built without issue for me just now.  I had a slight 
warning, but nothing major:

g++ -Wall -g -I/usr/include/mysql  -c -o wait.o src/wait.c
src/init.c: In member function ‘void

As I look at releases, I see that it has been a bit of time 
since we last pushed a release.  There is actually a slight 
issue with minimum server message versions with the latest 
Unix TWX JAR set, and we should probably get a new update 
release scheduled.  I have been away, and then since my return 
working on documentation and downstream client tools; Bill has 
been doing some refactoring.  I'll try to get together with 
Bill tomorrow to talk planning a next external version 
through.

I think I'll ask Bill to look into this and see.  We'll get 
you going, I am sure.
