Package: sqlite
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
The "sqlite" packages should explicitly note in their descriptions that
they're for SQLite 2, not SQLite 3. It's a small thing, but it may save
users from confusion and frustration, especially if they've never
installed the sqlite3 package on Debian before.
I've attached a patch to debian/control that makes the sort of changes
I've suggested.
Thanks for your work on the sqlite packages!
