Not sure what libz is or what its name is in the yum repository. Might take a search or maybe an rpm -qif /usr/lib/libz.so The problem could be that mysql-python expects to see a different version of libz than what's installed on your box. If so, you'll need to see if you can find the right version. The MySQL-python people should have more help for you. -- Jonathan Gardner jgard...@jonathangardner.net -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
