I am trying to run django from svn under Mac OS X 10.4.5 using packages
provided by Fink's unstable branch, namely python24, mysql and
mysql-client 5.0.16-1, and mysql-python-py24 1.0.1-2.  I have followed
directions found at http://cavedoni.com/2005/django-osx and am
currently attempting the example app found at
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/tutorial1/.  After I run
`python manage.py init`, I get the following error:

    Error: The database couldn't be initialized.
    (1251, 'Client does not support authentication protocol requested
by server; consider upgrading MySQL client')

Fink's /sw/bin is first in my path, and I have symlinked the django dir
obtained through svn to /sw/lib/python2.4/site-packages/django, peer to
MySQLdb which is also installed there.  I changed settings.py in
myproject dir to use the mysql database engine with a database and user
that exist and are correct.  I have also tried setting and unsetting
the DATABASE_HOST, but get the error message either way.

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks,
ian.
