hi Tim,
This seems more likely to be a MySQLdb problem than a Python one. Have
you considered asking in the MySQLdb forums?

Using python 2.6.4 on slackware 13.1
I have MySQLdb 'by hand', that is: by
1)downloading MySQL-python-1.2.3c1.tar.gz
2)unzipping tarfile
3)running python setup.py build
4)running python setup.py install
The build and install seemed to proceded without error,
but upon invoking the interpreter and running
import MySQLdb
I get the following ImportError:

Did you install the development libraries for MySQL first?
Those are needed to build MySQLdb yourself.
