Cant complete mysql-python installation in OSX

I have tried to get this to work, but I have had no success. I'm trying to install mysql-python by running :

pip install mysql-python

but I always get this error

clang: error: invalid version number in '-mmacosx-version-min=10.11'
error: command 'clang' failed with exit status 1

I have used homebrew to update all libraries and I have already installed mysql. I also made sure to have the latest pip, xcode and xcode command line tools.

I have searched for hours but I have not found a way get this package to build.

Please, if anyone has run into a similar situation, I would greatly appreciate a little bit of guidance.

This might be because x-code is not installed

xcode-select --install

You should install MySQL through Homebrew first, to get python-mysql work properly on OS X.

pip uninstall MySQL-python
brew install mysql
brew install mysql-connector-c
pip install MySQL-python

Original answer : MySQL-python on mac
