Synopsis

mysql-connector-odbc bug fix update

Type/Severity

Product Enhancement Advisory

Topic

An updated mysql-connector-odbc package that fixes one bug is now available for
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.

Description

The mysql-connector-odbc package contains the Open Database Connectivity (ODBC)
driver for MySQL.

• Previously, the mysql-connector-odbc package required the unixODBC package.
  However, this is not needed because the explicit dependency on the unixODBC
  shared library is sufficient. This update removes the dependency on the unixODBC
  package. As a result, the main unixODBC64 package can now be installed instead
  of unixODBC, and older ODBC applications can still use MySQL. (BZ#743711)
  

All users of mysql-connector-odbc are advised to upgrade to this updated
package, which fixes this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously-released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use the Red
Hat Network to apply this update are available at
