[Zope] Python or C Library error?

[Chris McDonough]

I've never used MySQLDA without MySQLdb.

I would try to follow the steps in the howto that deals with installing
mysql (including the steps for installing MySQLdb) in order to get the
thing working.

It sounds like you couldn't compile MySQLdb because you didn't have the
right libraries for MySQL.
