GitHub user epicshepich created a discussion: Docker image missing 
`libtdsodbc.so` driver

I am standing up an Airflow instance to manage ETL tasks against a Sybase 
database. In order to connect to this database, I have to use ODBC + FreeTDS, 
which I noticed are included in Airflow's Docker image. However, I can't find 
the `libtdsodbc.so` driver anywhere in the Airflow image. I don't know if I 
just haven't looked in the right place or if I need to `apt install tdsodbc`.

If that driver is indeed missing, would it be in the general interest of Sybase 
users to include it in the `RUNTIME_APT_DEPS` list within the Dockerfile?

I can't just create a modified image because I work in an enterprise that uses 
an airgapped environment, does not have an source of APT packages, and will 
only pull in images from verified Docker Hub publishers. I'm not asking for 
someone to create a workaround for my organization's red tape, I just think 
that this might improve accessibility for everyone who has the misfortune of 
working with Sybase. Please correct me if I'm wrong -- I'm used to using 
SQLite/Postgres and having everything just work, so I'm really out of my depth 
here with Sybase and TDS.
