some good news- actually in this case the package maintainers are
two steps ahead of the official 3.0.1 release from the SpatialLite
website.

Frankie has packaged & uploaded version 3.1.0~rc2-1 for Debian,
   http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/spatialite.html

That's good news!
But if I understand the details regarding this package, it won't include:
readosm (load OSM directly into a spatialiteDB)
rasterlite
spatialite_gui
spatialite_gis

(The two gui apps are specially important, I think, for OSGeo Live)

I suppose that's why Pirmin used a combination of installing spatialite-bin from the repos, and compiling other bits in his script for 5.5.  Maybe we should plan to do the same once this 3.1.0 version of spatialite-bin "hits the streets"?

Thanks,
Micha



which means rebuilding for Precise Pangolin is a very easy task; simply
put in a request/beg to the UbuntuGIS team to rebuild their existing
spatialite packages from a clone of the latest Debian/unstable build
rules.

https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntugis/+archive/ubuntugis-unstable/+index?batch=75&memo=75&start=75

then others benefit from it too.


cheers,

ps- if you want to try yourself, adapt the git checkout and debuild
instructions below; just replace "grass.git" with "spatialite.git".
[keep the repo name as 'pkg-grass']

https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/branches/releasebranch_6_4/debian/README.debian
http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-grass/spatialite.git;a=summary

e.g.
$ git clone git://git.debian.org/git/pkg-grass/spatialite.git
$ cd spatialite.git
$ vi debian/changelog   # tweak the version number on the first
                        # line to end with -0 or ~custom etc.
$ debuild -i -uc -us -b

[...whiz bang whirl...]

$ ls ../*.deb


there are also pkg-grass/pyspatialite.git, pkg-grass/spatialite-gui.git,
and pkg-grass/spatialite-tools.git build rules to try.
