Windows Installation Error - No applicable method - emacsql

[Jay Rajput]

Got following error when trying to run ekg-capture-url command after installation.

cl-no-applicable-method: No applicable method: emacsql, nil, [:select [object] :from triples :where (= predicate $s2) :and (= subject $s1)], "https://github.com/LGUG2Z/komorebi", base/type

Trying to debug it more, but any guidance is helpful. I do have org-roam-v2 working fine on this windows emacs. This is standalone windows emacs downloaded from https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/download.html#nonfree. Windows is one of my machine which I use at home and share with family members.

The ekg package does not say about not working with windows, so I am hoping that it should work, especially since org-roam v2 is working which also relies on sqlite.

The installation compile-log does show some warnings though

Emacs version is 28.2 as seen with emacs-version command.

sqlite was missing. After installing the same, things are working fine. Moving ahead. I installed sqlite using chocolatey on my windows 11 laptop

choco install sqlite

Thanks for diagnosing this. I'll add a note in the README and manual about the dependence on the sqlite binary (for Emacs version prior to 29).
