I'm working on a Mac running MacOS High Sierra 10.13.2 (17C88). While installing mysql in my virtualenv I've got the following error:
Collecting MySQL-python==1.2.5 (from -r qs4bmg/requirements/common.txt (line 4))

Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /private/var/folders/dx/hgccddq94qs8ww9ly3ykr0y40000gn/T/pip-install-guSoBx/MySQL-python/
I've tried many solutions (this one the most popular, but using apt not pip) but with no success. Could you please help me solve this error?
