Description:
These instructions fail under OS X 10.9 with the error:
 [ERROR] Invalid command line option: tMySQL ODBC 5.2 Driver;Driver=/usr/local/lib/libmyodbc5w.so

The cpmmand entered was:
 sudo ./myodbc-installer -a -d -t"MySQL ODBC 5.2 Driver;Driver=/usr/local/lib/libmyodbc5w.so"

in /usr/local/bin where I moved the installation's bin/myodbc-installer to.

How to repeat:
untar mysql-connector-odbc-5.3.4-osx10.6-x86-64bit.tgz, move the bin/* contents to /usr/local/bin, move the lib/* contents to /usr/local/lib, run the commandline above.

I was able to install using the *.dmg package so the severity could be lowered. Please try this workaround. Thanks.
