Problem compiling mysql-5.1.41-osx10.5-x86_64 on OS X 10.6.2 (Snow Leopard)

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to compile the 64-bit version of MySQL 5.1.41 on Snow Leopard by following a tutorial from HiveLogic.com. http://hivelogic.com/articles/compiling-mysql-on-snow-leopard/

I got as far as downloading the mysql-5.1.41-osx10.5-x86_64.tar.gx file, unpacking the files into a new folder (/User/doug/src/mysql-5.1.41.osx10.5x86_64), and moving into the new folder.

I run into a problem when I try to configure the release.
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql --with-extra-charsets=complex \
--enable-thread-safe-client --enable-local-infile --enable-shared \
--with-plugins=innobase

This generates the following error message:
./configure: No such file or directory.

Even trying something simpler (./configure --help) generates the same error. The messages aren't lying; the configure file isn't there.

Is there something missing from the distribution I downloaded?

Thanks for whatever help and advice anyone can offer,
-- Doug Maier
