Проблема с установкой MySQL-python-1.2.2

Я использую mandriva2006.
при запуске python setup.py build
получаю сообщение:
/etc/my.cnf: line 2: : command not found
/etc/my.cnf: line 11: : command not found
/etc/my.cnf: line 15: : command not found
/etc/my.cnf: line 19: : command not found
/etc/my.cnf: line 20: err-log=/var/log/mysqld/mysqld.log: No such file or directory
/etc/my.cnf: line 21: pid-file=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.pid: No such file or directory
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "setup.py", line 16, in ?
metadata, options = get_config()
File "/root/tmp/MySQL-python-1.2.2/setup_posix.py", line 43, in get_config
libs = mysql_config("libs_r")
File "/root/tmp/MySQL-python-1.2.2/setup_posix.py", line 24, in mysql_config
raise EnvironmentError, "%s not found" % mysql_config.path
EnvironmentError: /etc/my.cnf not found

Как это понять?
