If there is no prepackaged mysqldb 1.2.1 for the OS you are running, you have two options: 1 - download and build/install it yourself 2 - specify mysql_old instead of mysql as your database backend. Note, thought that there were known problem with the old version that led to requiring the new one, so you might run into problems with this approach. I think the problems were threading-related, so you may or may not hit them depending on your own setup.
