The sqlite is part of the qt47 build and runtime requirements. The qt47 packages are an almost one-to-one backpackaging of what Fedora ships. Since we are going this route (shipping a newer qt) I wanted to allow more consumers to use these packages, not only mythtv users. There are several pros/cons to that: pros: o more users than mythtv, qt47 packages do more good to this world ;) o more testers of these packages even outside the mythtv world o easier upgrading since it's 99% of what Fedora ships o (related to the last): faster response to CVEs cons: o too many dependencies, mythtv needs about half of them o build time is too long o need to backpackage stuff like sqlite we don't really want to be shipping/maintaining Given that the cons were dealt with, I like that we can now offer qt 4.7.x to EL5/EL6 users for any reasons they need it. -- http://thimm.gr/ - http://ATrpms.net/
