At disco the patches to default to pymysql for the django mysql driver where dropped; so the app is looking for mysqldb rather than pymysql.
This is not configurable - the only way to force pymysql is this hack:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34777755/how-to-config-django-using-pymysql-as-driver
so we might just be better to install python3-mysqldb to fix this issue. Horizon is not eventlet dependent so some of the benefits of using pymysql are not so valuable.
