dbf2mysql misses libmysqlclient.so.3

[Thomas Apel]

When I try to execute dbf2mysql it says:

        dbf2mysql: can't load library 'libmysqlclient.so.3'

In /usr/lib/ are the following file and symlink:

        /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.3.21.31
        /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.4 -> libmysqlclient.so.3.21.31

As it is a 3.x lib I created a link "libmysqlclient.so.3" pointing to
the lib but this only caused segfaults.

Installed versions are:

        mysql-base      3.21.31-1      mysql database client binaries
        mysql-doc       3.21.31-1      mysql database documentation
        mysql-manual    0.95-1-1       MySQL Manual in HTML format
        mysql-server    3.21.31-1      mysql database server
        dbf2mysql       1.10b-2        xBASE <--> mySQL

They are from a late hamm beta cd. But as the versions in stable seem to
be the same I don´t think this is the problem.

Any hints how to fix this?

TIA,
Thomas
