Lauren Foutz <lauren.fo...@gmail.com> added the comment: Before the pysqlite module was made standard it could be edited to link with Berkeley DB SQL instead of SQLite. I am requesting that the Python build add the ability to link with BDBSQL instead of SQLite.
Below is a description of how to link pysqlite with BDBSQL Download and unpack the latest version of pysqlite. Download and unpack the latest release of Berkeley Db (at least db-5.0 or higher). Build bdb using the following: cd db/build_unix ../dist/configure --enable-sql-compat --prefix=<bdb install directory> make make install Next change to the top pysqlite directory. There edit the file setup.cfg to the following: [build_ext] #define= include_dirs=<bdb install directory>/include library_dirs=<bdb install directory>/lib libraries=sqlite3 define=SQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION Note, make sure you uncomment the lines with "include_dirs" and "library_dirs" Next, build and install the python sqlite3 library using: python setup.py build python setup.py install ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13445> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
