I confirmed the same behaviour on my Raspberry Pi 4 - a BCM2711 powered SBC, running the arm64 build of Debian Bookworm. ``` $ datasette --load-extension=spatialite example.db Error: Could not find SpatiaLite extension ``` I did some digging and realised the issue originates in this project. Even with the `libsqlite3-mod-spatialite` package installed, `pytest` skips all of the GIS tests in the project. ``` $ apt list --installed | grep spatial […] libsqlite3-mod-spatialite/stable,now 5.0.1-3 arm64 [installed] $ ls -l /usr/lib/*/*spatial* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Dec 1 2022 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/mod_spatialite.so -> mod_spatialite.so.7.1.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Dec 1 2022 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/mod_spatialite.so.7 -> mod_spatialite.so.7.1.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7348584 Dec 1 2022 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/mod_spatialite.so.7.1.0 ``` ``` $ pytest tests/test_get.py ......

The [`SPATIALITE_PATHS`](https://github.com/simonw/sqlite-utils/blob/main/sqlite_utils/utils.py#L34-L39) array doesn’t have an entry for the location of this module on arm64 linux.

I can confirm that on both of my Debian arm64 SBCs, `libsqlite3-mod-spatialite` installs to that path. ``` $ ls -l /usr/lib/*/*spatial* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Dec 1 2022 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/mod_spatialite.so -> mod_spatialite.so.7.1.0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 Dec 1 2022 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/mod_spatialite.so.7 -> mod_spatialite.so.7.1.0 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7348584 Dec 1 2022 /usr/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/mod_spatialite.so.7.1.0 ``` This is a set of before and after snippets of pytest’s output for this PR. ### Before ``` $ pytest tests/test_get.py ......
