Error building Linux Mint - cannot find sqlite3 about rusqlite HOT 5 CLOSED

sqlite3.pc is the configuration file that should be installed so you can use pkg-config to figure out where the headers / library files are located. I haven't used Linux Mint, but I know on some systems, you have to install a -dev version of the sqlite package to get the headers and .pc file (e.g., libsqlite3-dev on Debian). Does it look like there's an equivalent on Mint?

Yes.. it needed libsqlite3-dev .. thanks!

@jgallagher I have the same problem on osx el.

I've installed pkg-config and sqlite3 with homebrew.

Ok, use PKG_CONFIG_PATH=echo /usr/local/Cellar/sqlite/*/lib/pkgconfig/ cargo build can build success.

@doabit thanks! PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$(echo /usr/local/Cellar/sqlite/3.9.1/lib/pkgconfig/) cargo run works for me
