I don't know much about sqlite, but your package content puzzles me:
usr/lib/sqlite3.8.2/pkgIndex.tcl
usr/lib/sqlite3.8.2/sqlite382.dll
usr/share/man/mann/sqlite3.n.gz
This looks only vaguely related to tcl. I see that the existing
tcl-sqlite3-3.7.15.2-1.tar.bz2 in the 64 bit distro looks similar,
but it's bound against sqlite-3.7.15.2, so it probably won't work
with recent sqlite versions anyway.
I really don't quite grok the directory layout and the naming.
I took a look into the Fedora package, which is called "sqlite-tcl".
It provides
/usr/lib/tcl8.5/sqlite3
/usr/lib/tcl8.5/sqlite3/libtclsqlite3.so
/usr/lib/tcl8.5/sqlite3/pkgIndex.tcl
That makes more sense to me:
- As a tcl package the shared lib should be under /usr/lib/tcl8.5
- The subdir and the shared lib shouldn't have the *exact* name of
the sqlite version, otherwise they don't make sense anymore if
sqlite gets updated to, say, 3.8.3.
Warren and Yaakov, what are you saying as sqlite and tcl maintainers?
Thanks,
Corinna
