Thanks, that makes sense.

There are only two surviving rdeps. kannel-sqlbox is not in testing
(it would probably only need a binNMU, except it has an unrelated FTBFS
bug), while golang-gosqlite-dev is due for autoremoval on 2020-12-10 and
has no rdeps. I'll ask the release team to remove golang-gosqlite-dev and
sqlite from testing.

 Hi,
 
 I stumbled upon this bug by chance when looking at why it did not
 compile in some new ports.
 
 Raising severity so at the very least it gets auto-removed from
 testing and thus it does not get included in the next stable release
 (it already was included in the last, despite opinions in this bug
 about the contrary).
 
 I guess that it's better to just ask FTP masters to remove the
 package, but I'll leave that to other people, since they were
 interested in doing that in the past (all in copy now).
Filing bugs against reverse dependencies to migrate to sqlite 3 would be
a better start IMO.
Probably it is too late to convert everything for Jessie:

$ apt-cache rdepends sqlite
sqlite
Reverse Depends:
  phpbb3
 |movabletype-opensource
  sqlite:i386
  sqlite-doc
  qsf
  phpbb3
  lire
  imms-common
  csync2
  beancounter

Dear Release Team, should this package be released with Jessie?

Cheers,
Balint

The only way I can see us not shipping it is if we remove it along with
the remaining rdeps.  Now is not the time to migrate them over to
sqlite3 in jessie.

Julien

 It should compile on all of them by now. The buildd archive shows
that arm64 and ppc64el are fine, even mips and sparc.

 Yes, I was about to ask its removal as upstream no longer supports
it. But it works correctly and I got personal mails that they would
still use it on low-end (embedded?) machines where sqlite3 would
require more CPU and/or memory.

 I've mailed all of them some years ago, but there are still some use it.

 It is late.

 I'm open for everything, but please do note that the removal would
mean removing the dependent packages as well.

I fully agree. How about marking this bug jessie-ignore or decreasing
the severity?
I periodically look for RC bugs to fix (like hopefully many others
:-)) and those would make that bug stop appearing on the list.

In this case I think this bug could be simply closed by answering the
question (Yes.).  :-)

Having reverse dependencies is actually useful to keep the code tested.
