THis is the result:

pi at rpi2-jessie2:~ $ sudo apt-cache search freetds
freetds-bin - FreeTDS command-line utilities
freetds-common - configuration files for FreeTDS SQL client libraries
freetds-dev - MS SQL and Sybase client library (static libs and
headers)
libct4 - libraries for connecting to MS SQL and Sybase SQL servers
libdbd-freetds - Freetds database server driver for libdbi
libqt4-sql-tds - Qt 4 FreeTDS database driver
libqt5sql5-tds - Qt 5 FreeTDS database driver
libsybdb5 - libraries for connecting to MS SQL and Sybase SQL servers
sqsh - commandline SQL client for MS SQL and Sybase servers
tdsodbc - ODBC driver for connecting to MS SQL and Sybase SQL servers

Seems like there are -bin, -common along with -dev...

Now heading for some SQL queries using the established connection!
