Please add the line:

Setup           = /usr/lib/libodbcmyS.so.1

to your /etc/odbcinst.ini file.

It should now look like:

# From the MyODBC package
[MySQL]
Description     = ODBC for MySQL
Driver          = /usr/lib/libmyodbc.so
Setup           = /usr/lib/libodbcmyS.so.1
FileUsage       = 1

Fernando
