[GRASSLIST:3961] Yet another configure question re odbc

[C.S. Cornuelle]

Hi.  Hamish, this one is probably for you, judging by over older
emails.  Sorry.  :^)

After years of waiting, I'm installing grass 5.7 on my SuSe 8.2
machine (linux).  Having installed the postgresql package running
the configure script for grass gives this:
        
	checking whether to use ODBC... yes
	checking for location of ODBC includes...
	checking for sql.h... yes
	checking for location of ODBC library...
	checking for SQLConnect in -lodbc... no
	configure: error: *** Unable to locate ODBC library.

Doing find produces:
	        
	/usr/lib/psqlodbc.la
	/usr/lib/psqlodbc.so
		        
However this lib should of course be searched automatically, and
explicitly including it on the command line for configure does not
help.  And of course one email claimed that in order to get postgresql
and grass to communicate one does not need an odbc.  I would like them
to talk, so any advice you could give would be appreciated.

This means that --with-odbc-libs=no is not an option for me, right?

Thanks.
