mysql-python安装时EnvironmentError: mysql_config not found

在安装 mysql-python时，会出现：

sh: mysql_config: not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "setup.py", line 15, in <module>
    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

只要原因是没有安装:libmysqlclient-dev

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

找到mysql_config文件的路径

sudo updatedb
locate mysql_config

mysql_config的位置为：/usr/bin/mysql_config

在mysql-python源码包下找到：setup_posix.py 文件，然后找到文件中的 mysql_config.path 将其值改为：/usr/bin/mysql_config,然后 sudo python setup.py install ,就ok了
