So, it seems you're satisfiew with direct-sqlite?

What is missing in 1st package (Galois bindings)?

btw, after some research, I've concluded that NOSQL (Redis, MongoDB)
are not good solutions in our use-case since we want to have extensive
querying support and using sqlite3 with SQL seems better option.

Hmm...you're right.

Apparently Archlinux package built OK; but loading it into ghci gives:

ghc: /usr/lib/direct-sqlite-1.0/ghc-6.12.1/HSdirect-sqlite-1.0.o:
unknown symbol `sqlite3_column_blob'

Thank you.

It looks it's the problem with package's cabal file...

Gour
