'npm install sqlite3' fails on Debian Squeeze about node-sqlite3 HOT 7 CLOSED

it also doesnt work with any other libev since lenny (libev 3.43) until sid (libev 4.04) with the same error.

all define ev_invoke as void ev_invoke(ev_loop*, void*, int) in /usr/include/ev.h

I'm very interested in finding out what libev version is required so that ev_invoke accepts ev_async* as the first argument?

from node-sqlite3.

solved it.

the issue is, that debian distributes libev with EV_MULTIPLICITY enabled. this means that the ev_invoke function takes three parameters instead of the two provided in src/async.h where the first parameter is an ev_loop.

the author of node-sqlite seems to use a libev with EV_MULTIPLICITY disabled.

to make it work with both EV_MULTIPLICITY settings, one has to use the EV_DEFAULT_UC_ macro like this:

Yep, looks like that fixes it!

dude - why would you close a bugreport if it is not yet fixed???

lol, totally hit the wrong button :D

cool! now lets just hope that Konstantin is not too annoyed by all this spam in his inbox ^^

Sorry, this went under on my notifications page :/ I've been able to compile node-sqlite3 on lenny just fine, but since that code is what is implied anyway, I just committed this change in 6127c75 and published v2.0.14.
