If you're looking for a Windows package, I don't have one yet.
If you can build a Windows package, let me know. 1.2.2 uses setuptools, so I tend to think an egg is probably the best way to go, MySQL-5.0 seems the most likely version that people will want; to use another version you will need to edit site.cfg. There wlil probably also be demand for both Python-2.4 and 2.5.
In fact, if you're a Windows user and you want a build, add a reply that states what versions of MySQL and python you require.
If you have a full compiler toolchain (on any platform), you should be able to do:
easy_install MySQL-python # run as root or use sudo
If you don't have setuptools on your system already, do this instead:
python easy_install.py MySQL-python
To build a binary egg distribution:
$ python setup.py bdist_egg
Like RPMs?
$ python setup.py bdist_rpm # not tested, but it'll probably work
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
I have a binary egg now for Python-2.5 and MySQL-5.0, and it's uploaded to the Cheeseshop, so if you go through the easy_install procedure, it should find it. On Windows it's kind of a pain in the ass because there's an easy_install.exe that probably isn't on your path (it's in your Python installations scripts directory). If it doesn't download automatically, download the egg manually and then run easy_install.exe on the egg directly.

You should know where to find it by now.

I'm using MySQL-python.exe-1.2.1_p2.win32-py2.4.exe, with MySQL 5.0.27.
Call me ignorant, but I have no idea what a "binary egg distribution" is.
I'm not in urgent need of an exe file, but I do prefer to use the current release of anything (except Vista, obviously).
Thanks.
So why aren't you using Python-2.5?
