newbie: installing MySQL Connetor .NET driver in Ubuntu Linux

Hello,
I would like to write Mono applications using Connector .NET driver. I
downloaded the following file from dev.mysql.com:
mysql-connector-odbc-3.51.20-linux-x86-32bit.tar.gz
My problem is that I don't know how/where to install the driver - I mean
I know "tar -xzvf" syntax but I don't know the destination directory.
Could you help me please?
Thanks!

bin -> /usr/local/bin
lib -> /usr/local/lib

or

bin -> /usr/bin
lib -> /usr/lib

or

bin -> /bin
lib -> /lib

The first option IMHO best, the second is ok and the last is worst even if it
works.
