Install new MySQL connector

Starting with 4.9.0, cloudstack-management RPM's now depend on the mysql-connector-python package. Therefore Apache CloudStack |release| requires the installation of the MySQL connector on CentOS.

MySQL connector RPM repository

Add a new yum repo /etc/yum.repos.d/mysql.repo:

[mysql-community]
name=MySQL Community connectors
baseurl=http://repo.mysql.com/yum/mysql-connectors-community/el/$releasever/$basearch/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1

Import GPG public key from MySQL:

rpm --import http://repo.mysql.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-mysql

Install mysql-connector

yum install mysql-connector-python
