[maemo-developers] [maemo-developers] Need some help with debian file for IT2006 device

Hello:
First, I am not an experienced Linux person, but I have been developing
on the Nokia for several months, with some success.  I am "flying by the
seat of my pants" as they used to say. I am porting my application to
IT2006, and have done that successfully, but the app depends on
libsqlite0, which is part of the root fs on the i386 side, but not on
the device itself, so I have to find a way to install it.  I managed to
do this after a lot of poking around - I think I had to use the
"becomeroot" application to get root privileges, and then I could use
apt-get install to get the package from the repository.  This left a
copy of "libsqlite0_2.18.3-2_armel.deb" in the cache, so I downloaded
this file to another location, thinking that others could use it to
install the library.  However, when I try to install this library using
that file and the application manager, I get the message that it is an
incompatible package.

I cannot attach the file to this message because it would make it too
big for the list- could someone please give me some advice as to 
why this package will not install on an IT2006 device ( I could send the
file to you if it would help)?

Thanks,
Steve Hill
