Ubuntu中安装mysql-python失败的解决方法

1.首先你要确定Ubuntu更新源能用，本文测试的Ubuntu 14.04的源，低版本的Ubuntu没试过。毕竟劳资不是测试人员。

为了安全起见 cp /etc/apt/source.list /etc/apt/source.list.bak

下面的是Ubuntu 14.04的源，（其他版本的源请自己查找）将下面的内容写到/etc/apt/source.list

deb http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/ trusty main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/ trusty-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/ trusty-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.163.com/ubuntu/ trusty-proposed main restricted universe multiverse

2. sudo apt-get update

3.sudo apt-get install mysql-python

发现报错了：

sh: mysql_config: not found

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "setup.py", line 15, in

metadata, options = get_config()

File "/home/zhxia/apps/source/MySQL-python-1.2.3/setup_posix.py", line 43, in get_config

libs = mysql_config("libs_r")

File "/home/zhxia/apps/source/MySQL-python-1.2.3/setup_posix.py", line 24, in mysql_config

raise EnvironmentError("%s not found" % (mysql_config.path,))

EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

4.具体原因是安装程序在/usr/bin/下找不到mysql_config文件。

在网上查的解决方法，一般是说你没有libmysqld-dev 或libmysqlclient-dev ，可是查了一下发现都存在。

5.首先一个重要的python-dev一般都没有安装，所以需要sudo apt-get install python-dev

完事继续安装mysql-python，发现还是不行。

6.重装libmysqlclient-dev,

奇迹终于出现了：
