MySQLdb AND Python 2.6

How does one get the MySQLdb module for Python 2.6?

I am on a CentOS 5 distribution and easy_install MySQLdb does not work for me. (cant find MySQLdb at pypy.python.org/s开发者_运维技巧imple/)

Thanks!

Have you tried it manually?

1. download the source
2. untar the file
3. cd into the MySQL-python-1.2.3 folder
4. python setup.py install
