Arch Linux

Description:

fail2ban 0.9.0-3 seems to depend on sqlite for saving actual jailed IPs, but the sqlite package is not stated as a dependency.

the following command : /usr/bin/fail2ban-client start

gives the following stacktrace :

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/fail2ban-server", line 28, in <module>
from fail2ban.server.server import Server

ImportError: libsqlite3.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Installing sqlite explicitly solved the problem

* package version(s)
- community/fail2ban 0.9.0-3
