(MySQLdb and FreeBSD) on a VPS?

[trace s. ruggles]

Hi all,

Has anyone had any luck installing MySQLdb while running under FreeBSD on a
VPS (virtual private server)?  (specifically, FreeBSD version 4.1)

The distutils.py module can't seem to find the right directories to do the
install because of the oddities of the VPS.  It's looking for directories
like "/usr/local/lib/..." while it should be looking for
"/usr/home/axiomfire/usr/local/lib/..." (the "/usr/home/aximofir" is my
specific directory on the VPS).

I've tried to go in and muck around with the default directory settings in
the sysconfig.py module within distutils, but I just seem to be making
things worse...

Thanks,
Trace
