You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 18.0 is available.
You should consider upgrading via the ‘pip install –upgrade pip’ command.

 

It shows that mysql should not be installed, because mysql-python is a plugin for mysql, so you need to install mysql to cover this bug

Perform the following operation.

sudo apt-get install mysql-server

sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev

You need to install the second one because you need the corresponding library to use mysql properly.

After re-executing the install command

sudo pip install MySQL-python

It shows success.

Note: The above environment is Ubuntu 16.04LTS version, for reference only.
