I believe http://pypi.python.org/pypi/MySQL-python/ is the Python module you need. In general, when looking for Python modules, http://pypi.python.org/ is where you should start (people will refer to it as either PyPI or “the cheese shop.” If setuptools is installed (it may be already) then you can run easy_install MySQL-python.
As far as MySQL is concerned, you’ll need to install that separately from a likely-looking package on http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/.

this is how i handled the issue on Fedora13:
you can get the module here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/
download to a convenient directory
read the README file
build the module, according to the instructions in the README, keeping in mind to use the version of python you are planning to use as an interpreter (2.6 for me). if there are more than one version of python, simply using ‘python’ will probably alias you into a particular version, which might not be the one you want.
after the build is complete, the .egg file will have been created and landed in a ‘site-packages’ directory associated with the version of python which was used for the build.
then, ensure that the .egg file created (you can see the install path in the output from the install) is placed on your PYTHONPATH
that did it for me, anyhoo…
good luck!
