ImportError: No module name MySQLdb

[Fred]

>From what I can tell everything seems right. Here are the results of
the sys.path:

>>> print sys.path
['', '/usr/local/lib/python24.zip', '/usr/local/lib/python2.4',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.4/plat-linux2',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.4/lib-tk',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.4/lib-dynload',
'/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages']

MySQLdb lives here: /usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/MySQLdb but
is not in the path....

I installed and am trying to run everything as root, and it is all on
the same computer right here with me.

If I can ever get this simplistic problem solved maybe you guys can
help me to get Zope running, it is not cooperating either... :-)
