Can't install LuaDBI on Debian 6.0

[llun]

I tried to install LauDBI on Debian 6.0 with apt but it errors with following message

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

 liblua5.1-dbi0 : Depends: libmysqlclient15off (>= 5.0.27-1) but it is not installable

So I build it from source but I don't know where to put result to correct directory. Which directory should I move .so and DBI.lua to?

Thanks, I'm looking into this.

DBI.lua: /usr/local/share/lua/5.1/DBI.lua
*.so: /usr/local/lib/lua/5.1/*.so

I can report the same problem on Ubuntu 10.04.2 LTS. Ubuntu 10.04 has
an libmysqlclient16 package in its repository.

Anyway, I only want to use SQLite, I don't need MySQL support in
LuaDBI. Is there a way to package it without the libmysqlclient
dependency? Or do i have to compile it myself for this?

There is a PPA with a working version of LuaDBI for Ubuntu 10.04:
https://launchpad.net/~prosody-dev/+archive/ppa

The PPA doesn't currently contain new Prosody releases (it may do some
day), so add this to your apt sources as well as the normal
packages.prosody.im repository.

I'm still working on an equivalent for Debian stable, but am not done
yet. Compiling manually should work fine.

'make sqlite3' to make only sqlite library.

Thanks for the help! In the meantime I compiled luadbi myself and found
out about the "make sqlite3" thing too, but I'll try the ppa anyway, so
I can profit from updates.
