First a question; Why do you need MyODBC. I assume you know that if you want to connect with ODBC from an Windows machine to your Linux machine, you don't need ODBC on Linux, but only the pre-compiled MyODBC driver for Win32.

Fix: Install libiodbc-2.50.3 first and then try again!

The file is now called libmyodbc.so

When you do an make install, you should get the following files:

(/usr/local/lib) ls -l /usr/local/lib/libmyodbc* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root other 566552 Sep 15 16:26
/usr/local/lib/libmyodbc-2.50.26.so -rwxr-xr-x 1 root other 638 Sep 15 16:26
/usr/local/lib/libmyodbc.la lrwxrwxrwx 1 root other 20 Sep 15 16:26
/usr/local/lib/libmyodbc.so -> libmyodbc-2.50.26.so
