I have no idea what this means.

looks like you don't have sqlite3 installed. do you?

I just downloaded sqlite 3.3.8 and compiled it. I tried running f-spot again with the same error.
then i tried recompiling f-spot to see if that would help and it didn't.

does it have something to do with libsqlite3.so.0 some library file?

well it wants the libsqlite3.so.0 file itself, which would be a standard part of sqlite as far as i know. you may need to run "ldconfig" to ensure the system is aware of the .so file if it's not already but obviosuly the file needs to actually exist in the first place.... does it? you may have similar named files, e.g. libsqlite.so.0.8.6 which would actually be the real file and libsqlite.so.0 would be a more generic symlink to it. if you do have somethign similar enough and the "make install" doesn't seem to have possibly done it's job quiteright, you can try adding that symlink yourself.

ldconfig seems to have worked. the program runs, but i'm still getting errors if i start it from console.

libcanvas, libgnome, and libglade are needed?
everything seems to work fine but the file menu which i found funny.

well again, there would seem to be depenndencies missing, somethgi9n that realyl should be being picked up by the installation process... only notable thing is that these binaries it wants are really knocking on a bit... they are gnome / gtk 1 libraries which have been obselete for quite some time now.
