I got the same error Michael Vogt mentioned

rmdir: failed to remove `/var/lib/odbc': No such file or directory
dpkg: error processing tdsodbc (--configure):
 subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 1

Synaptic then showed the package as installed.

I then created the /var/lib/odbc directory, dropped to the shell and
ran:

apt-get install tdsodbc

And got this:

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
tdsodbc is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
1 not fully installed or removed.
After this operation, 0B of additional disk space will be used.
Setting up tdsodbc (0.82-3) ...

So it looks like adding that directory allowed apt to finish and report
success.
