title: MySQL-python install Mac
body: <p>I am trying to install MySQLdb for Python on my mac so I can use it to test.  I am running <em>OS X 10.11.4</em>.  Everywhere I look says to use </p>
  
  <pre><code>pip install MySQL-python
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Every time I do that I get an error saying.</p>
  
  <pre><code>Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /private/var/folders/4s/4wwhr6zj59sf0c4qkprqbsp80000gn/T/pip-build-042_KK/MySQL-python/
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am running the command just right when I open a new shell, should I change the path?</p>
