Hello,

I want to second this email, and thank Sven and the others for maintaining SQLite
in Bacula.

I will probably make one more release of 9.4.x which will have SQLite in it, but please note that
the next version of Bacula will have a major change to the database catalog, and unless someone
works *very* hard, SQLite will not be supported in that version.  I will announce when the new
database version is ready for testing, so that if the community would like to keep SQLite working,
there should be sufficient time before the release.

Aside from the work it takes to maintain the code, please be aware that if ever a SQLite database
becomes corrupted, to the best of my knowledge there are no tools to correct it.  For MySQL and Postgres
there are tools that work quite well.

Best regards,
Kern

It's not that SQLite is bad or does not have the needed capabilities
but it simply adds to the complexity of the source and maintenance of
bacula features.
Also besides Carsten Leonhardt and me from Debian nobody has been
testing or even maintaining the SQLite database scripts.

SQLite is only available still because we tested and submitted patches
to keep it working.

Grüße,
Sven.
