I am not sure where the problem lies, you may want to look at debian's BTS to see if there is a similar problem or try to find out who the Ubuntu package maintainer is for the python-mysql package. I tried to fix this as well but it was nearly impossible and there is little or no help from upstream. We eventually left python for php. Good luck!
