Thanks to Tres and Ned for the quick help, installing form macports
did get me a step further. Now it's having another problem which I
can't find a solution for (readout below), but that probably belongs
to the macports mailing list.
Cheers!

I am trying to install MySQL_python, but I get the following error:

below). I am using python 2.5 and the latest version of os X on a
macbook. I could not find anything in the mailinglist archive (using
google's site: search - is there a better way to search it?) and
easy_install page advises to write to this mailinglist if there are
problems, so I was wondering if anyone could help.
Likely you need to arrange for the 'mysql_config' utility to be on
the
PATH when you run the script: if the utility doesn't exist, that
would
indicate that you need to install the MySQL client libraries for your
system.
Also, from the /opt/local/Library path in the traceback, it appears
that
you're using the MacPorts python2.5. If you don't need the absolutely
latest MySQL_python, you should be able to install everything you need
using MacPorts:
sudo port install py25-mysql
That should pull in all the dependencies, including the necessary
MySQL
client libs.
