FreeTDS Configuration
---------------------
export CC="gcc -fPIC"
./configure --disable-odbc --disable-apps --disable-server
--disable-pool --with-tdsver=7.1 --prefix=/some/tmp/prefix
I had to force the -fPIC option to GCC in order to be able to link
libsybdb.a. Before doing that, I was getting an error like the
one described here:
http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/amd64/howtos/index.xml?part=1&chap=3
From that article:
In this case, globally adding -fPIC to C[XX]FLAGS resolves the
issue, although this practice is discouraged because the
executables end up being PIC-enabled, too.
Since we are doing a special build and only need the library, not the
applications, it seems like a safe bet.
