Thanks; I've applied this patch in my /opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/ gems/sqlite3-ruby-1.1.0 It isn't clear to me how to get the native code re-applied to the gem. After patching sqlite3_api.i, I did: % sudo ruby extconf.rb install sqlite3-ruby but just reported there being nothing to do and re-running the test case yielded the same problem. I'm sorry if this is a basic question, but I'm new to patching ruby itself. Any idea from the sqlite3 gem provider when this patch might be included? -tim On Feb 5, 2006, at 10:42 AM, Sylvain Joyeux wrote: >> Any info would be helpful! > See > http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php? > func=detail&aid=2453&group_id=254&atid=1043 > and the patch I submitted, which should fix the problem > http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php? > func=detail&aid=2955&group_id=254&atid=1045 > > Regards, > Sylvain >
