This can only mean that MySQLdb is not installed for the version of
Python you are using. Didn't the recommended Python version change
from Zope 2.6 to 2.7?

Get MySQLdb-1.0.0.tar.gz (from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysq-python), unpack it, and read
README; there are specific hints for Zope there.
