Dear SQLite developers, The newest released version 3.9.2 of sqlite-autotools ships with an old version of autotools. In particular, it fails to compile on this system:
$ uname -a Linux sardonis 3.19.0-15-generic #15-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 16 23:32:13 UTC 2015 ppc64le ppc64le ppc64le GNU/Linux with this error from ./configure: UNAME_MACHINE = ppc64le UNAME_RELEASE = 3.19.0-15-generic UNAME_SYSTEM = Linux UNAME_VERSION = #15-Ubuntu SMP Thu Apr 16 23:32:13 UTC 2015 configure: error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one This problem can be solved by re-autotoolizing with up-to-date autotools. The build on ppc64le succeeds after doing that. Jeroen Demeyer.
