I have a question regarding merb dependency with sqlite. I am going to install merb on my m/c and I don't have sqlite installed on my m/c . I tried this command "gem install merb" and saw following error. If there any way to install merb with mysql please tell me.

Building native extensions. This could take a while... ERROR: Error installing merb: ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.

/usr/bin/ruby1.8 extconf.rb checking for sqlite3.h... no * extconf.rb failed * Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more details. You may need configuration options.
