Answer 1

It seems mysql_config is missing on your system or the installer could not find it.

(看来您的系统上缺少mysql_config或安装程序找不到它。)

Be sure mysql_config is really installed.

(确保确实安装了mysql_config。)

For example on Debian/Ubuntu you must install the package:

(例如，在Debian / Ubuntu上，您必须安装软件包：)

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

Maybe the mysql_config is not in your path, it will be the case when you compile by yourself the mysql suite.

(也许mysql_config不在您的路径中，当您自己编译mysql套件时就是这种情况。)

Update: For recent versions of debian/ubuntu (as of 2018) it is

(更新：对于最新版本的debian / ubuntu（截至2018年），它是)

sudo apt install default-libmysqlclient-dev
