Indeed it's not too complicated to modify the sources. I have attached a patch
for the latest version of fossil (from the development repository), but it
works just as well with fossil-src-20091103194336.tar.gz (it's listed on the
"Download" page). The only catch is that it doesn't work with the current
sqlite-devel, but it does work sqlite-devel-3.6.17-1.fc11.x86_64 which is
available in the updates-testing repository. I assume that after some time it
will be available in the updates repository. Also, all the fossil automated
tests pass with 0 errors.


@Silas Sewell
If you still want to package fossil, don't forget to run "tclsh
src/makemake.tcl > src/main.mk" after applying the patch. Also, delete the
sqlite3 bundled files to be sure you're not compiling them.
