if no sybase rpm was built, then there is no sybase provider installed
:-) please check the output of configure (when makinmg the package) to
see the error message it shows when trying to detect the sybase
libraries. It should display:

Checking for Sybase files... found

this check looks for ctpublic.h, so check where you've got it installed,
and use:

--with-sybase=/prefix/for/ctpublic
