[Zope] mysqlda / mysql-python on OS X

[Jim Roepcke]

This page here might explain your problem and the solution:

Note, if you're using the Plone 2 for Mac OS X install, you should use 
"pysetup" (or do what it does) instead of just running python setup.py 
build.  The installer claims "ownership" of the Zope build, so it's 
possible that a future upgrade could replace the Zope build and thus 
remove your added packages.

If you use pysetup, the package will be installed into 
$INSTANCE_HOME/lib/python, which Zope automatically adds to the 
PYTHONPATH if it exists.

Example:

# assumes you have a Zope Instance in /Applications/Plone2/Sites named 
"NameOfSite"
cd /path/to/python-package
/Applications/Plone2/Tools/pysetup NameOfSite
