Need Python 3.8 mysqclient latest version

[wowon01]

Dear All.

I need to deploy simple django app on Cloudlinux

So I use Setup Python App.

It create the venv (3.8).
Go to terminal and activate the venv.
Django installation is running well.
But mysqlclient installation is failed.

Then I did what told at https://support.cpanel.net/hc/en-us/...ng-mysqlclient.
Got succeed (kind of).

Set a basic django project.
When I do ./manage.py collectstatic, I got exception

```
File "/home/binojcamp4/virtualenv/teluwolu/3.8/lib/python3.8/site-packages/django/db/backends/mysql/introspection.py", line 27, in DatabaseIntrospection
FIELD_TYPE.JSON: JSONField,
AttributeError: module MySQLdb.constants.FIELD_TYPE has no attribute JSON

```

From https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ribute-json-wh , I need to have mysqlclient==2.0.1

So I check my version

(teluwolu:3.8)[binojcamp4@piyaman teluwolu]$ pip list |grep mysqlclient
mysqlclient 1.3.10

I tried --> pip install mysqlclient==2.0.1 and got :

```

```

Is it safe to allow all user accounts to do compilation?

Wow ....
Is it mean that the root will alternate the /opt/alt/pythonX.Y ?

Could you please give me URL on how to do it?

Note : I need to confince the root to do it, while he is (me also) not familiar with how alt-python work or build.
