Installing unixODBC "as is" creates two empty INI files in /usr/local/etc, Makefile: -touch $(DESTDIR)${sysconfdir}/odbcinst.ini Makefile: -touch $(DESTDIR)${sysconfdir}/odbc.ini In order to use ODBC with OpenOffice/MySQL ODBC, proper INI files are required. While the MySQL DRIVER is not built, the requisite INI files for MySQL DO exist in /Drivers/MySQL ./Drivers/MySQL/iodbc.ini ./Drivers/MySQL/odbc.ini I am not sure what to do about the unixODBC/Makefile which creates the empty INI files, which are really useless as is. Perhaps the Makefile should be patched to NOT create the empty INI files, but I will leave that decision up to somebody else. With the appropriate MySQL ODBC INI files in place, access to and use of MySQL databases from OpenOffice-2 works. How-To-Repeat: make install
