I request an adopter for the libdbd-sqlite-perl package.
The package description is:
This module embeds a small fast embedded SQL database engine called
SQLite into a DBI driver, if you want a relational database for your
project, but don't want to install a large RDBMS system like MySQL or
PostgreSQL, then DBD::SQLite may be just what you need.
.
SQLite supports the following features:
.
* Implements a large subset of SQL92
See http://www.hwaci.com/sw/sqlite/lang.html for details.
.
* A complete DB in a single disk file
Everything for your database is stored in a single disk file, making it
easier to move things around than with DBD::CSV.
.
* Atomic commit and rollback
.
The engine is very fast, but for updates/inserts/dml it does perform
a global lock on the entire database. This, obviously, might not be
good for multiple user systems. So beware. The database also
appears to be significantly faster if your transactions are coarse.
