Like basic shell scripts or PHP scripts over a web server should be restricted to get such information.
I totally agree. Also having the .so in the multi-arch lib path is suboptimal. Better would be /usr/lib/sqlite/<so-file>, also for other plugins.As I said, there are sqlite3 plugins that ship their .so files in /usr/lib/<multi-arch>/<.so-file>, but that's not where dyn-loadable plugins belong to, imo, either.
Find .debdiff attached. Can you upload it that way?OK, I will do it. Meanwhile I've patched the source to try loading extensions under sqlite/ as well. Unfortunately it doesn't work and I've found different information about why it may fail. Either due to I try to run it as root and/or that dlopen() can't handle subdirectories itself.
Ok, loading without full path from sqlite/ would be cool. Maybe you find a way to handle that smoothly.
For the qtcontacts-sqlite, it will be ok if we have to know the exact .so file location.
However, as sqlite3 and friends are all multi-arch foreign, we might better ship the modules in /usr/lib/sqlite/<.so-file>? So, without the multi-arch part in the path.
