Converting GeoTIFF to GeoPackage

I've been searching around for a way to do this and I focused on GDAL for a while. Everything I see says to use gdal_translate. The executable.

But, I'm on Windows and there are several GDAL nuget packages available. Using the GDAL package I can open a file and read it ...

    GdalConfiguration.ConfigureGdal();

    Dataset ds = Gdal.Open(file, Access.GA_ReadOnly);

... but I don't just want to read it. I want to convert it to GeoPackage. I don't see gdal_translate, or anything that would lead me to believe it will translate. Can someone give me some guidance here? How can I do the translation?

Or, is using GDAL packages not the best way to do this? I picked GDAL because it seems to be widely used.

If you can't do it with GDAL, you'll probably not going to be able to do it with anything else, since C# GIS libraries (Sharpmap, MapWindow, DotSpatial, etc...) normally depend on GDAL.

That said, and since there's no C# implementation for gdal_translate:
https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/swig/csharp/apps

That leaves you two alternatives:
- Implement the functionality you want. GDALwrite.cs would be a good start
https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/swig/csharp/apps/GDALWrite.cs

OR,

Call gdal_translate.exe directly from C#, the same way we normally do with ogr2ogr.exe
https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/143920/how-do-i-call-ogr2ogr-from-a-c-application

Note: GeoPackage support in GDAL requires the library to be compiled against libsqlite3. You'll have to check that on your nuget packages.

I appreciate the comments and the links. I'm trying to get something working quickly (and then later maybe go back and write something myself) so I decided to go the .exe route. But, I can't seem to find it anywhere. Any idea where to find it? I've been going through the Windows links on trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/DownloadingGdalBinaries but am having issues either downloading or getting an .exe
