I want to install mysqlclient(Python was installed with conda).I got this

conda install mysqlclient
Fetching package metadata .........
Solving package specifications: .


PackageNotFoundError: Package not found: '' Package missing in current linux-64 channels: 
  - mysqlclient

Close matches found; did you mean one of these?

    mysqlclient: mwclient, slackclient, pysmbclient

I am on Ubuntu 16.04,64 bit.

This is with apt search

The module name for import is MySQLdb, not mysqldb. Python is case-sensitive language even on case-insensitive filesystems.
