Pyodbc on El Capitan

I'm having trouble installing pyodbc on El Capitan. I have another virtualenv which was created during Yosemite days that has pyodbc.

I am installing pyodbc through the following command:

pip install --global-option=build_ext --global-option="-I/usr/local/include" --allow-external pyodbc --allow-unverified pyodbc pyodbc

It errs out saying it cannot find odbc dynamic library.

ld: library not found for -lodbc

The version of python I'm using is python 2.7.10(but has similar problems installing in python 2.6.9 too)

pyodbc now supplies binary wheels for macOS, for Python 2.7 and 3.4+, so no compilation is necessary. Note that these are built with unixODBC, not iODBC, however.

Add /usr/local/lib to compiler dynamic library path

pip install --global-option=build_ext --global-option="-I/usr/local/include" --global-option="-L/usr/local/lib" --allow-external pyodbc --allow-unverified pyodbc pyodbc
