About unixODBC in this distribution
-----------------------------------

In addition to the unixODBC package itself, you will want to install some
or all of these related packages:

mysql-connector-odbc	MySQL driver, needed to connect to MySQL databases
postgresql-odbc		PostgreSQL driver, needed to connect to PostgreSQL
unixODBC-gui-qt		Optional configuration management and test programs


The recommended driver definition for MySQL is:

[MySQL]
Description	= ODBC for MySQL
Driver		= /usr/lib/libmyodbc5.so
Setup		= /usr/lib/libodbcmyS.so
Driver64	= /usr/lib64/libmyodbc5.so
Setup64		= /usr/lib64/libodbcmyS.so
FileUsage	= 1

You can adjust the name (in square brackets) and the description, but
the other items should usually be used verbatim.

The recommended driver definition for PostgreSQL is:
