Hmmm, shouldn't that be '--sysconfdir=/etc'? Then, if the kit wants to
put configuration stuff in a 'freetds' subdirectory, it should refer to it
as $SYSCONFDIR/freetds. No?
(You see, I got tired of playing hunt-the-config long ago and coded an
/etc/config.site:
# Site defaults for GNU autoconf
test "$localstatedir" = '${prefix}/var' && localstatedir=/var
test "$sysconfdir" = '${prefix}/etc' && sysconfdir=/etc
so no matter what the kit thinks SYSCONFDIR ought to be, it makes no
difference here.
I also have a number of symlinks back from hither/etc, yon/etc, usw. to
/etc to support stuff that was compiled before I concocted my
config.site.)
