The reason I modified it, was not just because I wanted to.

During the discussions (dev and ticket, IIRC), it was mentioned not only
once that SQLite should be removed from Tcl, either because we do it
with other packages, or because ArchLinux developers do it.

The first reason is good for consistency, but there can be exceptions. I don't like th esecond reason. Just be cause Arch does something, doesn't mean we should. What about Debian or RedHat or ...?

Then, I concluded we were facing a bug in BLFS and it should be
urgently fixed before the 7.6 release, and used ArchLinux as example.

If the fix was trouble free, I don't have any objection, but it caused much more trouble than it was worth.

The reversion I did yesterday is not my preferred one, just wanted to
run out of the problem. But in my particular machines, I will *remove*
SQLite from Tcl, because to the best of my knowledge, the own developers
fear it and *it is useless*, perhaps something they are developing for
future use.

That's your choice of course, but I really don't think it matters either way.
