[Zope] Why does the MySQL adapter not work with MySQL and Zope

Hi, Recently I needed to upgrade my MySQL version and now my Zope database connection is broken. Is there a newer patch for the MySQL adapter? Using ZMySQLDA-1.1.3-nobin.tar.gz and ZMySQLdb-0.1.0. I used the Alan Progman instructions to install. Perhaps there is a better database that I can use that is less Zope fussy? It seems problamatic. Is there any hope of an improved Adapter installation method also? Thanks in advance.
