Try ldd thales to see if the library link is broken, in what case you
should either :
- update your LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable (but you should avoid it, just
have a look at http://www.visi.com/~barr/ldpath.html)
- add the lib files' path to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig (as root)
- move the files to a directory listed in /etc/ld.so.conf

If it doesn't work then, well, maybe you should re-install everything,
and profit of this to switch to mysql-4.xx and libmysqlclient.so.12
which are considered as stable now.

Good luck
