the building part was ok but while giving install python command 
thru su,  no file was copied giving something like this for every 
file of MySQLdb dir :"not copying CompatMysqldb.py (output 
up-to-date)"
  and "skipping byte-compilation of 
/usr/lib/python2.2/site-packages/CompatMysqldb.py to 
CompatMysqldb.pyc"



Kindly help out...
