Claude, it looks like Naoki opened up Issues on the repository. Coincidentally, I just opened a Django Ticket related to this: https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23446 I had not seen this thread until Tim Graham pointed it out. See that ticket for my views on the matter. tldr: recommending mysqldb1 is a documentation bug as it is a broken library.
