And all the features of libmysqlclient16-dev are in libmysqlclient-dev or not?!

Yes, they are.

is it possible to use libmysqlclient-dev instead of libmysqlclient16-dev or not?!!

It should generally be possible to do that, unless your source has a hard-coded dependency upon libmysqlclient16-dev.

Note that libmysqlclient16-dev has been a dummy package since the days of Ubuntu 10.04, when the transition to naming the library libmysqlclient-dev had already been made.

Yes, i use libmysqlclient18-dev. But i had a problem with location of libraries, that i solved it by using locate libmysqlclient, and use the address that this command gave me instead. Thanks izx – Mohsen May 20 '12 at 17:57
