Sorry for not being more specific; I was referring to www.sqlite.org. > Are you certain > that the library doesn't get installed as: > /usr/lib/tcl8.4/sqlite3/libtclsqlite3.so ? Well, the file is there, I somehow missed it :( I relied on 'make install's output and missed one line, where it calls tclinstaller.tcl. Also, my mind was set that the lib should end up on /usr/lib. My mistake. The documentation on www.sqlite.org is still wrong: it claims the library will be installed on /usr/lib, and also it gets the name wrong. I wonder if this merits a note in the book. I'll send a note to sqlite-users mailing list but somehow I doubt they'll take notice of it. > It does for me.

What's worse, sqlite doesn't honor --prefix with respect to libtclsqlite.so. I just installed sqlite with --prefix=/tmp and libtclsqlite.so just got installed into the usual location. I believe that, unless we can find a workaround, this behavior does merit a mention in the book. -- Miguel Bazdresch http://thewizardstower.org/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
