I did understand that the error message suggested to user autoreconf. I can read what I typed in my first post. But perhaps I should have been clearer in my question. Is there any chance anyone in this forum can provide an example or any instructions on *how* to use autoreconf, and in this context - installing mysql50-server? Or would anyone care to find another solution? I don't want to waste anyones time, which is why I googled this subject first, and even found a book on GNU autotools, but I simply don't have the time to read/learn it to resolve this issue. Any 1., 2., 3. style instruction would be useful for not just myself but any other FreeBSD/Linux noobs who have the impression that after thoroughly searching for an existing solution in the net, and not finding one, they may graciously/patiently be helped here. And then, in the future, should I find others with similar issues here, I knowing how to user autoreconf, would try to take more than 3 seconds to write more than a (sarcastic and redundant) one-liner reply to help others. I hope this is how good forums work. But then again, these fora have a lot of viewers and very few people attempting solutions. Perhaps I joined the wrong one? Thanks

It appears the preview function likes to strip all carriage returns from posts... and my last reply has been transformed from a few paragraphs to a single block. Great

ARGUMENTS

       object_class

       byte_offset
		 Specifies the offset in bytes form the base of the widget class of the extension field to be searched.

       version	 Specifies the minimum acceptable version of the class extension required for a match.

       record_size

DESCRIPTION

       The list of extension records at the specified offset in the specified widget_class will be searched for a match on the specified type, a

       XtGetClassExtension returns a pointer to a matching extension record or NULL if no match is found. The returned extension record is owned
