Unable to download MySQLdb - "no installation candidate"
I'm trying to install MySQLdb so I can run a Python script that connects to a MySQL database.
I tried running
$ sudo apt-get install python-pip python-dev libmysqlclient-dev
per the instructions on this page: https:/
but get
"Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libmysqlclient-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
Package python-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
However the following packages replace it:
