My Java Sir told me to install MySQL-server, workbench, and connector. I did that somehow after spending 30+ hours reading different posts.
After launching Workbench, I went to Tools > Start Shell for MySQL Utilities. Which gave me this popup: https://imgur.com/GQvHKsI
Pressing Download option redirected me to this website: https://imgur.com/ETr2nrY
After installing this package, whenever I run: sudo apt autoremove, I get this error:
pranav@inspiron-5548:~$ sudo apt autoremove

Removing mysql-connector-python (8.0.16-1ubuntu19.04) ...
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'distutils.sysconfig'
dpkg: error processing package mysql-connector-python (--remove):
installed mysql-connector-python package post-removal script subprocess returned error exit status 1
Errors were encountered while processing:
mysql-connector-python
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)So, I thought I should uninstall this, and I used sudo apt-get remove --purge mysql-connector-python command, but it also didn't work, and it throws me the same error as above.
What to do? I am in limbo here! Since any new development done in "mysql-utilities" is aged back to Jan 17, 2017, I don't think I will be needing this anymore. I did the mistake trying to install old archived deb package. (newbie)
IF u know, how to remove it, what is it, it would be really helpful to tell me about it.
