anyone know the problem

lib.pq.so is a postgresql library i believe. When are you getting the error?

Is this the first setup of the MySQL server? It sounds to me (although I should say I am not a Linux expert) like you've custom-compiled the MySQL application and are missing the dependancy which lib.pq.so is a part of, which at a guess, would be that you've compiled it with postegreSQL support but not installed the necessary dependency.

Try disabling postgresql when choosing packages.

Try:
apt-get install postgresql-libs

found the problem. there is a c++ library by the name of libstdc++.so.5

i don`t have it on my system. I have libstdc++.so.6 which is another version

Seems like you've configured it to use ports instead of sockets, so make sure that you haven't got a firewall like iptables running and preventing TCP/UDP connections to port 5432, or configure MySQL to use sockets instead and save yourself some hassle.
