centos7 安装mysql-python报错

Question

环境是 centos 7,python2.7。想要连接mysql，数据库安装的是最新版的8.0.12,使用yum install直接安装。
在安装mysql-python时，出错，报错信息如下

网上查出的各种原因和处理方法都试过了，需要安装的mysql-devel也安装了，但是依然报这个错。
虽然可以使用yum install MySQL-python这样安装，但是这样安装在虚拟环境里没办法使用。
pip方法安装和python setup.py两种安装方式都会报，请问这是怎么回事，有解决方法吗？谢谢了！

Answer 1

试过加 sudo吗

Answer 2

在使用 `pip install mysql-python 之前，你需要先安装 MariaDB（原 MySQL）开发者包

yum install mariadb-devel

Answer 3

我把mysql换成5.6版本的就好了，不知道为什么。。
