I need to install mysql-python under python2.6. mysql-python package needs python2.6-devel package that depends on the libpython2.6.so.1.0(64bit) I found on the net some python2.6-devel packages, but can't find libpython2.6 Server architecture is x86_64.
Maybe someone have this lib, or know where i can find it.
Thanks for help)
I have the same issue and this wonderful link solved it for me...
I followed some of the steps out of order because I was a little antsy and got some interesting error messages. I couldn't get mysqldb to build, but then I ran yum to install the packages i was supposed to be building and voila, mysqldb now builds and installs.
Let me know if it still doesn't work afterwards.
On CentOS 6.2, I solved the problem by finding the right version of the python-devel :
yum search python | grep -i devel
Then I installed :
yum install python-devel.x86_64
And :
easy_install psycopg2
Actually you don't have to follow all steps in the article http://blog.milford.io/2010/08/new-method-for-installing-python-2-6-4-with-mysql-python-on-centos-5-5/. Just build python2.6(+) from source will solve the problem, i.e., don't rely on yum. If you have python26 installed by yum, you can remove it first(and python26-devel too), and re-install python2.6 from source, then setuptools, and finally MySQL-python.
