Jean-Claude,
I do not have any experience with python 3.6 so cannot recommend any
workarounds.
You should contact the python developers for an answer too your problem. They
will likely direct you to a forum or mailing list where you can get a quick
answer.
My understanding is that python 3.4 is the last stable version of python
available.
Unless there is some capability in 3.6 that you need, I would be using python
version 3.4.
In general, stable versions are to be preferred to work with because they tend
to run into fewer problems.
So even if there is a workaround in python 3.6 for your problem, you may be
better off in the long run using python 3.4 unless you enjoy hunting for
workarounds.
Just my 2 cents, your mileage may vary.

Subject: [pythonvis] newbi with a question
Hi all,
I'm new to Python but not quite new to programming... I have worked on
mainframes way back when & I have used a variety of script languages, C,
ColdFire & others...
My question today concerns Python & MySQL. I have installed MySQL 5.7
server on my Windows 7 computer, created my database & tables, then
populated it all with the necessary data.
I wanted to use Python to build an interface to that MySQL database. I
had installed Python 3.6 but when MySQL installed, it complained that it
required Python 3.4 so refused to install the proper plug-in...
Will I have to install an earlier version of Python to satisfy the MySQL
wizzard requirement or do I have a workable way to use a MySQL database
with Python 3.6...
Thank you in advance for sharing your musings:-)
Cheers,
Jean-Claude Provost
