Comment:
An ugly workaround for this issue would be to just comment out the
kwargs['charset'] setting in django/db/backends/mysql/base.py:
{{{
kwargs = {
'conv': django_conversions,
# 'charset': 'utf8',
'use_unicode': False,
}
}}}
In my case, this is the 83rd line in /usr/lib/python2.3/site-
packages/django/db/backends/mysql/base.py
I'm not sure if this may cause charset troubles in your application and I
have not tested it extensively with non-ASCII charsets. And of course,
this is not a proper fix, it's just a workaround if you are having
problems with MySQL 4.0 and Django.
