There was a problem hiding this comment.
I would rather try and understand when we can expect good behavior when linking against the static lib
I think this is reasonable!

Fixes #919
Tested by:
locate_install_unixodbc(on a mac) when both static and dynamically builtunixodbclibraries were present, versus when only static were found.There is an argument perhaps that we should just revert aba5578 since it didn't fix the CRAN issue and it's potentially causing issues for regular users. I would rather try and understand when we can expect good behavior when linking against the static lib (are issues driver specific, with some OEM drivers behaving better when linking against the static lib versus others?). I don't feel strongly about this though, and can go either way.
