Name        : MySQL-python
Product     : Fedora 15
Version     : 1.2.3
Release     : 3.fc15
URL         : http://sourceforge.net/projects/mysql-python/
Summary     : An interface to MySQL
Description :
Python interface to MySQL

MySQLdb is an interface to the popular MySQL database server for Python.
The design goals are:

-     Compliance with Python database API version 2.0
-     Thread-safety
-     Thread-friendliness (threads will not block each other)
-     Compatibility with MySQL 3.23 and up

This module should be mostly compatible with an older interface
written by Joe Skinner and others. However, the older version is
a) not thread-friendly, b) written for MySQL 3.21, c) apparently
not actively maintained. No code from that version is used in MySQLdb.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:

Update to MySQL 5.5.10, for various fixes described at http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/news-5-5-10.html

Add tmpfiles.d config file so that /var/run/mysqld is recreated at boot.

Note that this includes a soname version bump for libmysqlclient.so, from .16 to .18, and includes rebuilds for all affected packages.
