MySQLdb is having trouble loading the MySQL client library. Since I
assume MySQL is installed, my best guess is that you have an
architecture problem. Your Python is probably running in 64-bit mode.
Do you have a 64-bit MySQL install? The "file" command will tell you
which architectures are in a binary if you're unsure.
