I’ve been working with the newly released Opensuse Leap 15 which no longer packages python MySQLdb.
Suspicious that this was intentional, I googled a bit and found this on the saltstack Github issues pages:
https://github.com/saltstack/salt/issues/31450
In this thread they indicate that MySQLdb has been abandoned.
I can install the appropriate development tools and build manually, but this is a very heavy weight solution for basic Db management
I can file a ticket with the Suse folks, but I suspect they’ve also decided the project is abandoned.
Any thoughts/suggestions
