I'm having trouble installing on Irix 6.5.5. I'm running MySQL-python-0.9.1, Python 2.0 and MySQL 3.23.47. The only change i've made is to the setup.py file to use the thead-safe mysqlclient and the include_dirs and library_dirs lists to use the correct mysql paths for my system. The error I'm getting is:
[Warlock\:%~]python setup.py build
error in setup script: invalid distribution option 'platforms'
Thanks for any help,
Sonja

Get a newer distutils. See the README.
I am having the same problem in Linux.
I downloaded and installed the new Distutils and still get that error...
