mysql-python is in pypi, so it's unclear to me why I'm getting this message?

is it related to https://github.com/DavHau/mach-nix/issues/111

Don’t know. I can work around it with buildPythonPackage and manually specifying pname etc. i think the error message is wrong and it does find it but it has an error processing it. What error that could be, I don’t know, since it doesn’t tell me.

mysql-python hasn't been updated since 2014 and is a python 2.7 package only. Probably you did not select python 2.7 as an interpreter?
