I found this in the source code:
printf("[--dump-format|-D] <format> | <format>: flows are saved as:\n"
" | b : raw/uncompressed flows\n"
" | t : text flows\n"
#ifdef HAVE_SQLITE
" | d : SQLite\n"
#endif

Indeed, when I run nprobe --h, the line above about sqlite doesn't get printed, so presumably the problem is that it thinks I don't have sqlite installed. How do I get it to recognise that it's installed?

I also see this in the nprobe user guide:
" Support for disk-dump flow, either text files or SQLite files, and MySQL database server dump flow."

Is it really possible to make it dump to MySQL? What's the parameter?

I think the code below suggests that sqlite support needs to be added at compile time?
