Nope:
dpkg -L python26 | grep site-packages
/sw/lib/python2.6/site-packages
/sw/lib/python2.6/site-packages/README
$ dpkg -L python26-shlibs | grep site-packages

Well, one fundamental issue is that we _don't_ have a mysql-python-py26:
$ fink list -t mysql-python-py
Information about 7955 packages read in 0 seconds.
mysql-python-py24 1.2.2-1001 Python interface to MySQL
mysql-python-py25 1.2.2-1001 Python interface to MySQL
So you need to a) make sure you have one of those two installed, and b)
use the python version appropriate to that. The "python" package has
multiple versions, so you could do something like "fink install
python-1:2.5.2-1" to point the "python" executable to python2.5. That's
a bit fragile, since "fink update-all" will update it to 1:2.6-2
