This is because there are two distinct versions of Sqlite, 2 and 3.  The
Mono RPM is dependent on sqlite2 and you have sqlite3 installed.
Mono.Data.SqliteClient works with both, and since I don't think you can
have a disjunction in RPM dependencies, that dependency needs to be removed.

You can grab the sqlite2 rpm from the Fedora Extras repository (or
http://fedoraproject.org/extras/4), till that's fixed.

Presumably this patch to release/conf/mono/ximian-build.conf will fix it:
        <dep id="requires">
          <i>mono-core = [[fullversion]]</i>
-         <i>libsqlite.so.0[[libmark]]</i>
        </dep>

(The library for sqlite3 in FC5, and also FC4 iirc, is libsqlite3.so.0.)

Though of course, it won't grab any sqlite automatically anymore.

If someone could give me a nod, I'll commit that...
