 Something like:
sqlite_atom=$(best_version dev-db/sqlite)
sqlite_major_version=${sqlite_atom#*/*-} #reduce it to $PV-$PR
sqlite_major_version=${sqlite_major_version%%.*} # major version
 
... ebuild stuff...
econf  \
  $(use_enable sqlite sqlite${sqlite_major_version})
 
 Better yet, why not make an sqlite.eclass that would contain at least
 get_sqlite_major_version()?
 

No. The produced binaries can't depend on the build system like this.
Breaks binary packages etc.

 Not explicitly.  Qt can also build against an internal version of sqlite2, so 
 it
 shouldn't be too big of a problem to remove this particular dep (but that 
 doesn't
 get rid of the flag issue, I suppose).

So let's use the internal sqlite2 library and just use the sqlite USE
flag. Since it won't really affect depends that way. It'll basically be
sqlite support...

 Just the first examples I found, you can find countless for both of them in
 the tree.

 We should imho decide if
 a) sqlite means sqlite-2.x and sqlite3 means sqlite-3.x.
 b) sqlite means enable sqlite-support always and sqlite+sqlite3 means if
 both are available use sqlite-3.x instead of 2.x.

 I don't care which one (or a completely different one), but I think it
 should be made clear. At least I think the current behaviour in the tree

I agree with this. I'd take this a step further, using old cruft isn't a
choice anymore. If an app supports sqlite2 and sqlite3, we'll have a
USE=sqlite that'll enable sqlite3... sqlite2 just isn't an option
anymore. The conversion process is very simple...

Step 1) mv mydatabase.db mydatabase.db-old
Step 2) sqlite mydatabase.db-old .dump | sqlite3 mydatabase.db
Step 3) Profit!

I'm willing to start making this change asap in the tree. Since sqlite2
and sqlite3 are SLOTED, people won't lose their sqlite2 binary and will
be able to make the conversion. I'll even add an ewarn for people to
make sure to update their databases to sqlite3.

Also, qt already uses it's own internal sqlite2 library and doesn't use
the system library so that won't be a problem.

We should remove 2.x from tree and use just sqlite.

Anything that uses Qt for database access (and chooses sqlite as the
backend). media-gfx/kphotoalbum is an example.

Oh, and another reason is compatibility -- sqlite2 and sqlite3 use
different on-disk format. sqlite3 can't read sqlite2 data and vice versa.
