Yes, that is normal, you have downloaded the whole source code tree for 
the current master build version of LO. In core/libo, you will find a 
series of folders, each one corresponding to different parts of LO that 
are either systematically built, or else are optional build modules for 
some of the extensions or other goodies.

Good effort so far, now all you have to do is wait :-))
The total time for building LO the first time, including the connector, 
with a config like the one you mention, is about 24 hours. Seeing as you 
are only building the mysql connector in addition to the standard 
extensions, it might be shorter. I regularly build with more extensions 
(extra templates, extra gallery, googledocs, etc) so it takes more time 
on my machines.
