asterisk users - Jun 2017 - Working around missing libmyodbc in Debian Stretch

Hello,

I'm building a new Asterisk system from source on Debian Stretch.
My building script fails as package libmyodbc is currently missing from
Debian Stretch repo.

Is there a work around this without leaving MySQL/MariaDB galaxy ?

Best regards

This is why you should not use Debian testing for a server!  Testing is kept 
"always installable" by the crude method of REMOVING broken packages
until a
compatible version is ready.  This means you will occasionally find a package 
with no install candidate.

You will have to get the Source package for libmyodbc out of Sid, and see what 
you have to do to persuade it to build on your system.  And then maybe pass 
that information upstream to the package maintainers concerned.

Well, Stretch will be the new stable as of 17 june 2017 which for me is 
no more a testing version.
