Comment (by timgraham): Test failures are fixed with mysqlclient 1.3.3. As noted on the thread, we'll need to drop Python 3.2/MySQL support since the client doesn't support it. I wonder if mysqlclient has added support for binary data? If so, we can drop the `supports_binary_field` flag (unless it might be needed by 3rd party backends). There is also some logic about the minimal MySQLdb version in `django.db.backends.mysql.base` which will need to be updated. And of course documentation updates are required. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23446#comment:5> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
