cc1: error: unrecognized command line option “-Wno-null-conversion” within installing python-mysql on mac 10.7.5

This error broke my python-mysql installation on Mac 10.7.5. Here are the steps

  1. The installed python is 2.7.1, mysql is 64 bit for 5.6.11.
  2. The being installed python-mysql is 1.2.4, also tried 1.2.3
  3. Configurations for the installation
    1) sudo ln -s /usr/local/mysql/lib /usr/local/mysql/lib/mysql
    2) Edit the setup_posix.py and change the following mysql_config.path = "mysql_config" to mysql_config.path = "/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config" 
    3) sudo python setup.py build

Here is the stacktrace for build

Method 1

Try to Remove cflags -Wno-null-conversion -Wno-unused-private-field in

/usr/local/mysql/bin/mysql_config.

like:

cflags="-I$pkgincludedir  -Wall   -Os -g -fno-strict-aliasing -DDBUG_OFF -arch x86_64 " #note: end space!

Method 2

Wow, I’ve been spending a couple of hours on thistrying to ‘pip install MySQL-python’. I have been re-installing Xcode 4.6.3, the Xcode command line tools seperatly (on Mac OS X 10.7.5), and installing Kenneth Reitz’ stuff (https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer) to no avail while I was …

Altering the cflags options finally helped!

Thanks!
