# # What about libodbc.so? (bug #171370) # According to the upstream authors the library can safely be installed as libodbc.so to use it with OpenOffice, R and other applications. It is not yet done in Debian by default as currently unixODBC maintains a symlink to libodbc.so and using alternatives for shared libraries is maybe dangerous. We are currently deciding if maybe one ODBC library can be dropped alltogether. last edited: 2004-03-01, ch@debian.org
