MySQL Connector/Python is implementing the MySQL Client/Server protocol
completely in Python. No MySQL libraries are needed, and no compilation
is necessary to run this Python DB API v2.0 compliant driver.

Update Information:

Update to version 1.0.7 GA

Changes in 1.0.7:
* Fixed formatting of client errors changing numeric to string placeholders. (BUG#14548043)
* Client and server errors have been regenerated using latest development release of MySQL v5.6.6.

Changes in 1.0.6beta:
* Fixed Python v3 code so it works with Python v3.3. (BUG#14524942)
* Fixed MySQLCursorRaw.fetchall() to not raise when results are available. This was only a problem in the Python v3 code. (BUG#14517262, BUG#66465)
* Changed name and version of distributions to align with other MySQL projects (WL#6450)
* The version now includes the suffix 'b' for beta and 'a' for alpha followed by a number. This version is used in the source and built distributions. GA versions will have no suffix.
* The RPM spec files have been updated to create packages which names are aligned with RPMs from other MySQL projects.
* Fixed installation of version.py on OS X. (BUG#14483142)
* version.py is now correctly installed on OS X in the mysql.connector package. Previously it was installed through data_files, and version.py ended up in the system wide package location of Python from where it could not be imported.
* data_files is not used any longer in setup.py and is removed. Extra files like version.py are now copied in the custom Distutils commands.
* Fixed SSL unit testing for source distributions. (BUG#14402737)
* The SSL keys and certificates were missing and have been added to the source distribution. Now SSL testing works properly.
* Additionally for the Windows platform, forward slashes had to be added to the option file creation so the MySQL server can pickup the needed SSL files.
* Timeout for unit tests has been set to 10 seconds. Test cases can individually adjust it to be higher or lower. (BUG#14487502)
* Fixed test cases in test_mysql_database.py which failed when using using YEAR(2) with MySQL v5.6.6 and greater. (BUG#14460680)
* Changed how MySQL server errors are mapped to Python exceptions. We now use the SQLState (when available) to raise a better error. (WL#6412)
* Incompatibility: some server errors are now raised with a different exception.
* It is possible to override how errors are raised using the mysql.connector.custom_error_exception() function, defined in the mysql.connector.errors module. This can be useful for certain frameworks to align with other database drivers.
