Ok, still haven't gotten lunch yet, but I think I know the problem. When I
run pip install, it complained about missing mysql_config so I added
/usr/local/mysql/bin to the path and I could find mysql_config. Running
that, I see it outputs a bunch of stuff:
Usage: /usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config [OPTIONS]
Options:
--cflags [-I/usr/local/mysql/include -g -q64 -ma -qstrict
-qoptimize=2 -qmaxmem=8192 -qalign=natural -qldbl128 -DUNIV_AIX
-DUNIV_AIX]
--include [-I/usr/local/mysql/include]
--libs [-Wl,-brtl -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
-lmysqlclient -lz -lnsl_r -lm]
--libs_r [-Wl,-brtl -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
-lmysqlclient_r -lz -lnsl_r -lm]
--plugindir [/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql/plugin]
--socket [/tmp/mysql.sock]
--port [0]
--version [5.1.59]
--libmysqld-libs [-Wl,-brtl -L/usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql -lmysqld
-ldl -lz -lnsl_r -lm -lrt]
It looks like the MySQL-python is using that output to detect the CFLAGS
to use when building itself. Since the MySQL connector was built with XLC
and also 64-bit (at least for the random version I have installed on this
box), it has -q64 in the CFLAGS.
Looks like the MySQL DB2 connector is mutually incompatible with the
Python we ship with OPS. You could try downloading the tar file and using
the /opt/freeware/bin/python_64 like so:
/opt/freeware/bin/python_64 setup.py build
/opt/freeware/bin/python_64 setup.py install
Of course, you'll need XLC for that unfortunately.
If you can deal with sqlite, you can use pysqlite at least. The sqlite
package that comes with Python was built against the Perzl sqlite (by
accident). If you install the Perzl sqlite it should work. (We're working
to fix this properly).

Thanks Kevin....with it being 75 degrees here I guess I am crazy to be
sitting indoors trying to compile code.....but this is my time to try
stuff while I have the week off...
FWIW setup.py has next to nothing in it:
--------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import sys
from distribute_setup import use_setuptools
use_setuptools()
from setuptools import setup, Extension
if not hasattr(sys, "hexversion") or sys.hexversion < 0x02040000:
raise Error("Python 2.4 or newer is required")
if os.name == "posix":
from setup_posix import get_config
else: # assume windows
from setup_windows import get_config
metadata, options = get_config()
metadata['ext_modules'] = [Extension(sources=['_mysql.c'], **options)]
metadata['long_description'] =
metadata['long_description'].replace(r'\n', '')
setup(**metadata)
--------------------------------------------------------
But not sure where things like 'get_config' live unless setuptools has
it...
