MySQLClient instal error: "raise Exception("Wrong MySQL configuration: maybe https://bugs.mysql.com/bug.php?id" : <p>I am trying to install mysqlclient to my Python 3.6. Originally what i want to install is MySQLdb, however it was saying that MySQLdb does not work with Python 3 (still?). So i switch to mysqlclient.</p>

<pre><code>pip3 install mysqlclient
</code></pre>

<p>However, it was given this error:</p>
