[freetds] Compiling freetds on IBM Z series

[Schonecker, Brian]

I want to compile freetds on IBM Z series linux and I want to duplicate the build/configure arguments that were used at the Red Hat/Centos repositories. I have not been able to find the SRPMS that contain freetds at either Red Hat or Centos forge.

Is there any way I can tell what ./configure arguments were used? I've tried lots of various arguments but I am always getting a bunch of header files and other miscellaneous stuff along for the ride.

`rpm -qil freetds` indicates a fairly minimal set of (non documentation) files.

I want the same dependencies and requirements as the freetds RPM from either Red Hat or Centos.

Yes, I could just add the extra stuff along for the ride but I'd like an RPM as true to the 'official' one.

Thanks, Brian

The configure args are not trapped in the binary. Some of the effects
are, but that's not what you want.

The configure scripts are written to config.log. If that file is
included with your RPM, you're in luck. Else I recommend talking to
the folks who maintain it.

Looks like the most simple of things has escaped me.

I downloaded the lastest freetds tarball, un-gzipped it, bzip2'd it and then ran 'rpmbuild -tb freetds-0.91.tar.bz2'. It appears as though all the extra 'stuff' wasn't included and there's a fairly minimal list of files in the package.

I was trying to use fifteen tools when I only needed one.
