I come from ubuntu, and there you get development headers for most packages by following the naming convention, which is package-dev.

Anyone could hint me in the right direction? If it's useful, I need the dev headers for sqlite3. Dev things come with the regular packages. Just install the sqlite3 package. In general, if you know the name of a file you want, you can use pkgfile (from the pkgtools package) to find the right package.

I'm by no means an Arch expert, but as far as my experience goes Arch will install the -dev part along with the normal package. At least that seems to happen for most packages that provide libraries etc., if you install the lib you get the headers as well. Ciao, -- FA O tu, che porte, correndo si ? E guerra e morte !

The standard practice in Arch is to keep development headers in the package, so they should be included in the sqlite3 package. Contact the package maintainer if anything is missing. Enjoy!

The only package I know where headers are split due to their size is the kernel-headers pacakge. Welcome to Arch, have a nice trip. -- Sven-Hendrik
