Subversion 1.7.4 should use pkg-config for sqlite3 libraries
Hi all,
It seems that subversion just tries linking explicitly with -lsqlite3
during configure, yet sqlite3 itself may be linked against other
libraries which need to be pulled in. And this can fail on some systems.
The configure script should use "pkg-config --libs sqlite3" to obtain a
list of libraries.
Thanks,
Alan.

Mmm, I can see that seems to be controlled by the enable-all-static flag.
Not to worry then,

Just to note that subversion should also be using "apr-1-config --libs"
to determine what libraries libapr needs as well.
It doesn't seem to be doing it here, and the build fails here too. Does
subversion's configure script do the above ?

Right, that's what I'm now doing.

We could, but it won't help you unless you stop passing --with-sqlite=/usr.
Refer to build/ac-macros/sqlite.m4.
I suggest you stop passing --with-sqlite=/usr --- that will make
configure DTRT on your system.

Well, you could check to see if pkg-config is available, then if
pkg-config with sqlite3 worked, then fallback to specific paths.

Can't be "only" pkg-config, as that would break the build on systems
that don't have it.

Are you passing --with-sqlite=/usr to configure? That stops pkg-config
being used.

Yes, it doesn't work as you are checking /usr first, yet it should be
pkg-config first (or only)....
This is what I get....
configure: checking sqlite library
checking sqlite3.h usability... yes
checking sqlite3.h presence... yes
checking for sqlite3.h... yes
checking sqlite library version (via header)... okay
checking for sqlite3_close in -lsqlite3... no
configure: WARNING: no suitable sqlite found in /usr
Because the check for sqlite3_close in -lsqlite3 fails as it doesn't
have the extra libraries available to link the test case.

This is why the RPM setup tools are best used with a restricted build
environment, without unnecessary components. I use "mock" to provide this
reliably. Otherwise, you can have adventures with old OS's (like RHEL 4)
that have incompatible versions of neon.

Specifying a path and using pkg-config are incompatible.

Just to note that I'm passing --with-sqlite=/usr on the configure line too.

Subversion does use pkg-config after first trying /usr. Are you saying
this does not work? If I temporarily remove the library from /usr I see
configure: checking sqlite library
checking sqlite amalgamation... no
checking sqlite3.h usability... yes
checking sqlite3.h presence... yes
checking for sqlite3.h... yes
checking sqlite library version (via header)... okay
checking for sqlite3_close in -lsqlite3... no
checking sqlite library version (via pkg-config)... 3.7.10
