   <!-- Answer -->
   To resolve the "No module named 'MySQLdb'" error when upgrading to Superset 
version 5.0.0rc2 using the official Docker image, you can follow these steps:
   
   1. **Create a `requirements-local.txt` file** in the Docker directory:
      ```bash
      touch ./docker/requirements-local.txt
      ```
   
   2. **Add `mysqlclient` to the file**:
      ```bash
      echo "mysqlclient" >> ./docker/requirements-local.txt
      ```
   
   3. **Launch Superset** with the appropriate Docker Compose file:
      - If you are using a stock (non-customized) Superset image, run:
        ```bash
        docker compose -f docker-compose-non-dev.yml up
        ```
   
   4. **For a customized Docker image**, create a custom Dockerfile that 
includes the necessary build dependencies before installing the `mysqlclient` 
package. This is important because starting from Superset version 4.1.0, 
database drivers were removed from the base Docker image to create a leaner 
image.
   
   5. **Rebuild your local image** with the new driver and dependencies 
included:
      ```bash
      docker compose build --force-rm
      ```
      After rebuilding, relaunch Superset by running:
      ```bash
      docker compose up
      ```
   
   6. **Verify the installation** by entering the running container:
      ```bash
      docker exec -it <container_name> bash
      ```
      Then run `pip freeze` to check that the `mysqlclient` package is listed.
   
   Additionally, the use of `uv` for package installation in the Superset 
Docker image can cause permission issues. If you encounter a 'uv: command not 
found' error, you can modify the installation script to check for the presence 
of 'uv' and use 'pip' if 'uv' is not available. Here's a snippet to handle this:
   
   ```bash
   if command -v uv > /dev/null 2>&1; then
       uv pip install --no-cache-dir -r "${REQUIREMENTS_LOCAL}"
   else
       pip install --no-cache-dir -r "${REQUIREMENTS_LOCAL}"
   fi
   ```
   
   These steps should help ensure that the `mysqlclient` package is installed 
and accessible by the Superset user within the Docker environment
