Hello, this thread is a bit old but I haven't needed to compile or use
FreeTDS for 2 years or so now. Now that I have to, I downloaded the stock
"freetds-stable" which opens up to freetds-0.82 and I'm still getting this
config.rpath error in configure. I am not a programmer by a long shot so I
have no idea how to "generate" my own config.rpath. Can someone help??

Does that mean I have to download a snapshot / current trunk/branch etc. to
make this work?

I'm assuming this never got put into the 0.82 branch as the stable/default
download package doesn't have it?

Thanks
