Why are you trying to update mysql when the error says 'MySQLdb'?
Check also the version... mysql is 5.x; not 1.x.
# yum whatprovides */MySQLdb
...
MySQL-python-1.2.1... on CentOS 5
MySQL-python-1.2.3... on CentOS 6.
How did you install django?
There are django packages from repoforge and elrepo...
