The Gnome-DB package does just this. The libgda package that is provided by them is a DB abstraction layer. One of the databases it supports is sqlite and it embeds sqlite into its library. libgda is licensed under the LGPL. However, it may be important that you make it possible for your package to use an external sqlite library still. In my case the inclusion of sqlite in libgda was a downside because now I would need to have two separate sqlite instances on my system that would both need to be updated when a new sqlite is released. In fact, libgda will be adding support for this shortly: http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-db-list/2005-August/msg00048.html Mark Drago.
