multiple definition error

I'm leveraging golang-migrate to do database schema init & update. Aligned with go-sqlcipher, it always pops up the following error:

golang-migrate depends on github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3. Both github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3 and go-sqlcipher have an embedded sqlite3 database. When the linker wants to build your binary you get the error above.

I know that you can somehow get go-sqlite3 to use an external sqlite3 library instead of the included one, but I don't know if you can get it to use the one included in go-sqlcipher.

A hackish way to fix your problem would be to fork golang-migrate and replace go-sqlite3 with go-sqlcipher. Make sure you use the latest head of go-sqlcipher to have full go-sqlite3 compatibility.

Since there doesn't seem to be anything that can be done from the go-sqlcipher side I'm closing the issue.
