Re: unixODBC library "odbcinst" not found when configuring psqlodbc-09.01.0100

Hi Dev,

Sorry, the last command I tried was "./configure --without-libpq
--with-unixodbc=/usr/local" and that is when I received the error about not
being able to create executables.

I must admit I'm not entirely sure why I'm using "-without-libpq", I am
following internal company documentation that was left by someone who no
longer works here. I can only assume there was a reason for this.

I can provide the contents of config.log if required but it is rather large.

I have unixODBC version 2.2.11 installed. odbc_config -version confirms
this.

Any thoughts/help would be greatly appreciated.

What output you get for following:
1) which odbc_config
2) odbc_config --libs

Also did you try to export following and then building psqlODBC:
export LDFLAGS=<output of #2 above>

for example:
# export LDFLAGS=-L/usr/local/lib

Also you could add --with-unixodbc=/usr/local in ./configure.

By the way any particular reason to use -without-libpq option?

Regards...
