In which file did you encounter the issue?
While going through the process of setting up the Django Tutorial app on my local machine I was asked to install the requirements using pip install -r requirements.txt
Did you change the file? If so, how?
I did nothing to modify the files
Describe the issue
The output from the install presented the following error:
Command "python setup.py egg_info" failed with error code 1 in /private/tmp/pip-build-xp_b0b6_/mysqlclient/

Have you tried
brew install mysql?lanec commentedon May 23, 2017
I followed the tutorial provided by Google at: https://cloud.google.com/python/django/flexible-environment
It states that we are going to be using PostgreSQL for local development (and cloud). I ended up commenting the mysql client out of the requirements.txt and completed the installation from there.

Remove the mysql installation requirement from the requirements.txt to resolve the issue you are encountering.
