mycheckpoint on MySQL 5.5.13

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Background:
I installed mycheckpoint couple months ago, it worked very well on 5.1.42. 
Recently I upgraded to MySQL 5.5.13, and 'mycheckpiont' collapsed.  

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
-- See below the error...
What is the output when running with the "--verbose --debug" options?
---------------
[root@dbh1 ~]# mycheckpoint -uroot -pxxxxxxxxx --skip-disable-bin-log 
--skip-check-replication --socket=/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock --verbose --debug
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/mycheckpoint", line 22, in ?
    import MySQLdb
  File "/usr/lib64/python2.4/site-packages/MySQLdb/__init__.py", line 19, in ?
    import _mysql
ImportError: libmysqlclient_r.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such 
file or directory

-------------
What version of the mycheckpoint are you using?
-- 208
What version of the MySQL are you using? (SELECT VERSION())
-- 5.5.13
On what operating system?
-- Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.5 (Tikanga)

Please provide any additional information below.

Thanks,

This is a dependency issue for python-mysqlDB rather than mycheckpoint. The 
python-mysql driver expects libmysqlclient 1.5 and finds 1.6

Since you're running RedHat, I would suggest that you install the MySQL-compat 
package, which includes libmysqlclient15.
Look for the "MySQL-shared-compat-5.5.13-1.rhel5.i386.rpm" package on 
http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/5.5.html#downloads after selecting RedHat 
packages.

Hi Shlomi,

Hmmm.. this is strange. However, this is still not a mycheckpoint bug: you must 
resolve your dependency issue with python-mysqldb.

Are you using yum? up2date? Try and re-install python-mysqldb; otherwise check 
for the dependency packages.
