Has anyone ported any database software (SQLite, MySQL, whatever) to the iLiad? Either my google-fu is weak, or there's no package or installer on mobileread (I think it was Adam B mentioned he'd compiled sqlite? but as part of some other project).

If not, is it just that the super-porters have had other priorities, or is there likely to be a good reason not to try?

I tried just dropping the sqlite linux executable onto my iliad, which unsurprisingly didn't do the trick.

Code:

root@ereader:~# ./sqlite3-3.6.10.bin 
./sqlite3-3.6.10.bin: 1: Syntax error: word unexpected (expecting ")")

My next attempt will be to try to set up a cross-compiling environment (following instructions on hansel's site) and compile it myself. If anyone can help shortcut that process I'd surely be thankful.
