Reading the source, the SQLite .so is loaded here: http://planet.plt-scheme.org/package-source/jaymccarthy/sqlite.plt/4/6/sqlite-ffi.ss Try the equivalent code and see if it works: (require scheme/foreign) (unsafe!)

PS: Here is the important part of a Chef (http://www.opscode.com/) recipe for installing Racket. I haven't used it for a little while, but it worked last time I did. It also isn't as abstracted as I'd like -- it hardcodes 5.0.2 at the moment. require 'net/http' package "g++" # The version number to download # String racket_version = if node[:racket][:version] == :latest then "recent" else node[:racket][:version] end # String racket_type = if node[:racket][:type] == :textual then "-textual" else "" end racket_base_path = "/installers/#{version}/racket#{racket_type}/" racket_file = begin h = Net::HTTP.new("download.racket-lang.org", 80) resp, data = h.get(racket_base_path, nil) end # Fetch Racket tarball remote_file "/usr/local/racket-textual-5.0.2-src-unix.tgz" do source "http://download.racket-lang.org/installers/recent/racket-textual/racket-textual-5.0.2-src-unix.tgz"; mode "0644" end directory "/usr/local/racket-textual-5.0.2" do mode "0755" action :create end script "install_racket-textual-5.0.2" do interpreter "bash" cwd "/usr/local" # user "kahu" code <<-EOH pwd ls tar zxf racket-textual-5.0.2-src-unix.tgz cd racket-textual-5.0.2/src mkdir build cd build pwd ../configure make make plain-install cd ../../bin ./racket -N raco -l- raco setup -D EOH end file "/usr/local/racket-textual-5.0.2-src-unix.tgz" do action :delete end directory "/usr/local/racket-textual-5.0.2" do # owner "kahu" # group "kahu" mode "0755" end link "/usr/local/plt" do to "/usr/local/racket-textual-5.0.2" end _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/users
