MySQLdb ImportError libmysqlclient.so.18

安装MySQLdb后，导入包时MySQLdb出错如下

根据最后提示，应该是找不着一个动态链接库文件libmysqlclient.so.18，于是到MySQL安装目录里找到这个文件并且做一个软连接到/usr/lib

ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.so.18 /usr/lib/libmysqlclient.so.18

如果是64系统则

ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib/libmysqlclient.so.18 /usr/lib64/libmysqlclient.so.18

再次import MySQLdb就正常了
