Greetings,

I'm working on an app that may end up open sourced and released
publicly for others to use. It uses SQLite and the records have a
comments field for which I'd like to use a fts4 vtable to enable
search. My few test systems show that support for fts4 is present, but
I'm trying to learn if it's a reasonable assumption that the usual
SQLite build/deployment "out there" includes support for the feature.
Is it a reasonable expectation that package maintainers on Linux/BSD
flavors, OS X port frameworks, etc. ship the package with fts4
enabled? Is it typically only missing if someone has built locally and
intentionally disabled support for e.g. optimization reasons or
something?

Wondering how lazy I can get on working around, disclaiming, or
otherwise handling a key feature that could be missing.

Thanks,
