pip无法在线安装mysql,我无法使用pip安装mysql-connector-python

I am trying to install mysql-connector-python==1.0.12 as part of my project's automated installation, and I get the following error from pip install:

Collecting mysql-connector-python==1.0.12 (from -r /tmp/requirements.txt (line 20))

Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement mysql-connector-python==1.0.12 (from -r /tmp/requirements.txt (line 20)) (from versions: )

No matching distribution found for mysql-connector-python==1.0.12 (from -r /tmp/requirements.txt (line 20))

Up until a few days ago it worked fine. I investigated a bit and found the following issue in bitbucket.org. Specifically, the following comment dated 28/12/2015:

That should be blank, per PEP 470 using PyPI to link to a package not

hosted by PyPI for automated installers to download (the /simple/

index) was deprecated and scheduled for removal. Maintainers of the

affected packages were emailed 3 months ago. The removal happened

earlier today (a bug caused some oackages like Twisted which were

hosted on PyPI to also have their links removed but that has been

remedied). The maintainers of MySQL-connector-python should either

upload to PyPI or direct their users to use either -f or

--extra-index-url with a repository they maintain.

How can I have the installation of mysql-connector-python==1.0.12 run smoothly?

Do I need to set up my own repository?

解决方案

There are quite a few solutions, e.g. hosting a private repository, but the quickest was to change the requirements.txt file to download from mysql's cdn.

i.e., to change:

mysql-connector-python==1.0.12

to
