First of all, I've sent pull request to MySQL-python. It wasn't merged for a long time while I needed it. So I've forked. https://github.com/farcepest/MySQLdb1/pull/61 https://github.com/farcepest/MySQLdb1/pull/62 After that, Django supports Python 3 officially. So we've discussed about which driver Django recommend for Python: mysql-connector/Python, PyMySQL and mysqlclient. https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/django-developers/mysql-python/django-developers/n-TI8mBcegE/BpGKEE08-g0J While the discussion, it was reported on Debian. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=768096 It's experimental package for now. https://packages.debian.org/experimental/python3-mysqldb http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs//main/p/python-mysqldb/python-mysqldb_1.3.4-1_changelog I don't know about RHEL. As far as I googling, they are using original.
