[ Reason ]
Clementine fails to start if the package libqt5sql5-sqlite is not
installed, i.e. clementine is missing a Depends. This was reported in
#1008312, an identical fix has already been uploaded to Unstable.
[ Impact ]
Users need to realize that a Depends is missing that they need to
install manually. As it is, clementine might simply fail to start.
Clementine's error messages indicate that something is missing, but
finding the relevant missing package is hard for end users.
[ Tests ]
There are no code changes at all, clementine just gains an explicit
Depends on a package that most QT users will already have installed
anyways. I'm running the updated package on my local Bullseye just fine.
[ Risks ]
No code changes at all, a trivial fix, and the newly added Depends on
libqt5sql5-sqlite can be fulfilled on all release archs. There had been
a binNMU in Stable that had me worrying whether the versioning of the
proposed upload was correct, but according to apt/dpkg it all works as
intended, cf.

In the past other packages were impacted similarly and also fixed this
by adding an explicit Depends, e.g.
