I was getting the same problem -
configure: error: Cannot find MySQL header files under yes.
Note that the MySQL client library is not bundled anymore!

and I did -
apt-get install mysql-server

This installed mysql but I did not get any header files. So, just for benefit of guys who get same problem, you need to install dev version -
DO -
apt-get libmysql++-dev

@ Rookie:

Glad to help. Now you just need to install mysql-server. If I remember correctly, the apt-get command for that is:
apt-get install mysql-server

Then just make sure you are configuring php with a really general path (like /usr) or the proper path to the mysql header files.

Thanks dude!, now ./configure gives me:

configure: error: Cannot find MySQL header files under yes.
Note that the MySQL client library is not bundled anymore!

I will keep on searching.

Cheers!
