Install sqsh for freetds (Sql Server)

Duplicate: I can't make SQSH 2.1.7 with freetds 0.91

I am trying to install sqsh for freetds (SQL Server) as per this answer. I installed freetds under /opt/freetds.

However, I am getting the following error building sqsh:

[noahlz:sqsh-2.4]$ sudo ./configure --prefix=/opt/sqsh 

...

configure: error: Unable to locate Sybase installation. Check your SYBASE environment variable setting.

I tried setting export SYBASE=/opt/freetds to no avail.

On OS X I'd suggest: 

brew install sqsh

Man, I love Hombrew.

Do not use the sudo command to configure the build environment. Just run

export SYBASE=/opt/freetds
./configure --prefix=/opt/sqsh

I would recommend to add --with-readline as well. Then run

make
sudo make install

So you only need sudo when you want to install the product and need root authorizations to do that. Please note that a newer version sqsh-2.4 is available for download from Sourceforge.

HTH, Martin.
