Please don't upload a package based on this patch; it's highly likely that the patch that will be applied upstream will involve quoting all column names, not just "indexed", and so any database created with this patch applied will be incompatible (in a subtle way). > Unittests are shipped with databases in old format and axiom tries to > upgrade them.

I don't think there's much we can do about this, unless SQLite is patched to fix this problem. The only real solution that can be implemented in Axiom is a "meta-upgrader" that upgrades old stores; we'll then need to add a NEWS.Debian note or something to notify users that they /must/ upgrade their old stores before upgrading SQLite. That still seems horribly inadequate, but I don't know what else we can do to make the transition easier. I plan to implement a proper patch that quotes the column names, and hopefully get it merged upstream in the next day or two. -- mithrandi, i Ainil en-Balandor, a faer Ambar -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-python-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
