Topic

Updated MySQL-python packages that fix various bugs are now available.

Description

MySQL-python is an interface to the popular MySQL database server for Python.

This update replaces MySQL-python 1.0.0, which did not work well with MySQL
4.1, with a newer version that does. Relinking against the MySQL 4.1 client
libraries also resolves problems seen when both 3.x and 4.x MySQL client
libraries were loaded into the same application process, as sometimes
happened within Apache for instance.

Users of MySQL-python are advised to upgrade to these updated packages,
which resolve these issues.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via Red Hat Network. To use Red Hat Network,
launch the Red Hat Update Agent with the following command:

up2date

This will start an interactive process that will result in the appropriate
RPMs being upgraded on your system.
