Thanks

I've managed to get sqlite3 installed without errors, but now it says errorwhile loading shared libraries: libreadline.so.5: cannot load shared object file.

I'm using the cacko rom and trying to install sqlite3 from the zaurusfr cacko feed, if that helps.

I've been trying to get sqlite3 installed on my sl-5500 without any luck. The package I found refuses to install because it has dependencies but I don't what they are. Does anybody have knowledge on this?

Thanks

My SL-5500 is vastly superior to my old palm and my old iPaq. I've written a shell script that pulls the needed data out of PortaBase, rsyncs it to my pc, does the editing on the files, then puts the new  files on the Zaurus. Again, I just wanted to say thank you for all the help everyone has provided

Also, are there advantages using the Cacko rom over the Sharp 3.10 rom? Also, I've noticed that sometimes when I try to install something (SuperTux for example) it says there are other packages that need installed. It doesn't list them so how would I find out what else needs installed?

Would I be able to write stuff on my pc using free pascal and run them on my zaurus?

if I knew what I needed to do or have installed I would try compiling stuff, I just don't know where to start with it.
