"We are not officially supporting SQLite any more. It seems to have too many crashes. We will leave the code in Bacula for testing and for those who want to chance using it."

Perhaps the Gentoo ebuilds should have an einfo mentioning this.


Reproducible: Always

Added an info to the new bacula-5.2.13.

We will keep USE=sqlite3 as even a client-only installation requires some database support to install. Requesting mysql or postgresql for that case seems like an overkill.
