I am on OS X Lion (or leopard). I have sqlite3 - (SQLite version 3.7.5) - installed at /usr/bin/sqlite3, and sqlite3, sqlite3-ruby and Text gems installed.

I have downloaded what I believe to be the required Census 2010 files- EDGES, FEATNAMES, ADDR, ADDRFN - and placed them in opt/tiger/TIGER2010/

When I run build/tiger_import, I get the following error:

$ build/tiger_import /opt/tiger/geocoder.db /opt/tiger
--- 01001
Error: unknown command or invalid arguments:  "load". Enter ".help" for help
memory
Error: near line 49538: no such function: metaphone
Error: near line 49559: no such function: compress_wkb_line
Error: near line 49566: no such function: digit_suffix

geocoder.db is created in opt/tiger but looks to be only the table structure.

I understand that this is probably an OS X issue, our target platform is ubuntu, but I was looking at taking advantage of my eight cores before moving the db to a server slice.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
