pip install MySQL-python failed in linux

Question

I've created a Django project and its works as well now I'm trying to config it with MySql so searched in Google and did some ways but when I pip install MySQL-python the below problem occurs:

Collecting MySQL-python
Using cached MySQL-python-1.2.5.zip
Complete output from command python setup.py egg_info:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/tmp/pip-build-lwubgejh/MySQL-python/setup.py", line 13, in <module>
    from setup_posix import get_config
  File "/tmp/pip-build-lwubgejh/MySQL-python/setup_posix.py", line 2, in <module>
    from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser
ImportError: No module named 'ConfigParser'

----------------------------------------
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-lwubgejh/MySQL-python/

couldn't find any solution for this error: Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /tmp/pip-build-lwubgejh/MySQL-python/

thank you for help.

This library is not compatible with Python 3. Follow the advice in the Django docs and install mysqlclient instead.
