Issue with: conda install mysql-python

[pathaine]

Hello, I get the following error when running "conda install mysql-python" on Ubuntu 16.04:

UnsatisfiableError: The following specifications were found to be in conflict:

• mysql-python -> python 2.7* -> openssl 1.0.1*
• python 3.6*
  Use "conda info " to see the dependencies for each package.

Thank you in advance!

The mysql-python conda package hasn't been built for python 3 . You can try creating a python 2.7 environment and install mysql-python into that.

(root) bash-4.1# conda create -yn py27 python=2.7 mysql-python
(root) bash-4.1# source activate py27
(py27) bash-4.1# python -c 'import MySQLdb; print(MySQLdb.__version__)'
1.2.5

Oh, I see. Thank you!
