[SOLVED] sqlite3
by modim from LinuxQuestions.org on (#53K1J)
Slack64, 14.2, package sqlite-3.13.0-x86_64-1.txz has usr/lib64/libsqlite3.la
But Slack64-current, package sqlite-3.31.1-x86_64-1.txz doesn't have this file. It's not in any other package either.
I had to upgrade to sqlite-3.31 because I needed the window function support. Just did upgradepkg using the -current package. Everything worked fine.
But later, I tried building something that needed the .la file in the build.
I haven't examined the -current build script but could it be that some build option needed to be invoked to generate the .la file?
Yes, I know I'm lucky it works at all because the -current packages are linked against different versions of various libraries than my 14.2 system. But I'm certain it's the missing libsqlite3.la that was the issue with the other build I was attempting because I copied in the .la file from the old package and the build succeeded. But that's probably not the right answer. Anyway, curious what's going on.
thanks!
