I still don't understand. Why change anything for FC-3 at all? I really
don't see the point, and would prefer avoiding pushing out a new kannel
package for FC-3 which has for only change a build requirement of "sqlite2-
devel" instead of "sqlite-devel"...

My preference would be to undo the sqlite v2 to v3 change in the FC-3
branch, remove sqlite from the devel branch (as sqlite v3 is in Core) and
import the FC-3 sqlite v2 as "sqlite2" in the devel branch with those last
changes you suggested.

Why do you want to go and introduce major changes to the FC-3 branch?
