@T-002 Sorry, I can't reproduce, looks like the compatible issue with setuptools , can you upgrade your pip and try again?

(python3) [sanpingz ~]$ pip -V
pip 8.1.2 from /Users/sanpingz/.virtualenvs/3.5/lib/python3.5/site-packages (python 3.5)

@sanpingz I did the following:

1) Creating a venv

$pyvenv mysql_test
source mysql_test/bin/activate

2) Checking versions

(mysql_test)$ python -V
> Python 3.5.2
(mysql_test)$ pip -V
> pip 8.1.2 from /Users/username/mysql_test/lib/python3.5/site-packages (python 3.5)

3) Still the same error :(

(mysql_test)$ pip install mysql-connector

@T-002 sorry for my late reply.

I released 2.1.4, use setuptools to replace distutils, try to solve the compatibility issue.

This new version should fix your issue. Can you try install again?
