I have the exact same issue, also with Dreamhost. I tried the
"mysql_old" thing, but still got the same error. Here's the relevant
part of the stack trace:
File "/django_src/django/db/backends/mysql_old/introspection.py",
line 1, in ?
from django.db.backends.mysql.base import quote_name
File "/django_src/django/db/backends/mysql/base.py", line 20, in ?
raise ImportError, "MySQLdb-1.2.1p2 or newer is required; you have
%s" % Database.__version__
ImportError: MySQLdb-1.2.1p2 or newer is required; you have 1.2.1g3
My checkout is up-to-date (Revision 4767). Any help would be
awesome.
