I tried this a couple of weeks ago using macports and had problems.

See, for example:

http://www.davidcramer.net/code/57/mysqldb-on-leopard.html

I read about several people who went in and edited the source files to
work out the bugs on Leopard, but instead I just changed my Python
code to use SQLite for the moment until someone fixes MySQLdb. There's
a nice Perl script that will convert your MySQL db to an SQLite db if
you're interested.
