I am trying to compile the IDE with the sqlite package enabled.
The package itself compiles OK but the IDE cannot find the sqlite library when it comes to linking into the IDE.
Where do I have to place sqlite.so it for it to be found please?
I have linked the libsqlite3.so.0.8.6 in /usr/lib to any place I can think of and it STILL is not being found and I get the error shown below in the verbose output log.
I have placed a link in
1) /opt/gnome/lib
2) {the directory which contain my projects which compile successfully}
3) development
4) development/lazarus
I have added to LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable
1) {the directory which contain my projects which compile successfully}
I have added to PATH
1) {the directory which contain my projects which compile successfully}
I have added environment variable PPC_EXEC_PATH
1) {the directory which contain my projects which compile successfully}
As you can see from the compile statement below obtained with the --verbose option on fpcup_update, I have /usr/lib in the -Fl options which show the compiler where to find the libraries.
There must be something obvious I am missing. Can anyone help please?

a few more lines and then stops
it seems no-one knows the answer to this one but there MUST be an answer somewhere.
