A heads-up for anybody using Fedora 7 (and probably useful for those hanging out answering questions on IRC, too):
Fedora recently updated the MySQLdb-python package to 1.2.2-2 and, in the process, introduced a fairly annoying backwards incompatibility. They changed MySQLdb.version_info to be a string (it's meant to be a tuple). I've filed a ticket with Fedora (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=246366 ), so hopefully this will be fixed soon. In the interim, if you are using the "mysql" backend, either avoid updating MySQLdb-python to 1.2.2 (the 1.2.2-1 release had another bug, so avoid that, too) or edit django/db/backends/mysql/base.py to remove the version check at the top of the file (1.2.2 is clearly later than 1.2.1p2).
