> It's the sort of thing I might say to add a note to
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/3.0/internals/contributing/writing-code
/unit-tests/#troubleshooting the Troublesooting section in the Running the
unit tests guide], saying "Update SQLite, preferably from homebrew" or
similar. SQLite is already on 3.32... — how long is any code we're going
add here be operational?

best approach here is.)
Part of the problem is that it's not as simple as just updating SQLite
from Homebrew, you also have to set specific `LDFLAGS` and `CPPFLAGS`
environment variables when building Python. I'm not sure many people would
do this (I have never done it previously). So while we could fix it in the
docs but I think that it would be confusing to a lot of people.
I've adapted my PR to exclude this feature when using SQLite 3.28.0 on
MacOS 10.15.x which I think is a good fix. As you said, sqlite is on
3.32.3 now, so it's highly likely that 3.28.0 on MacOS is always the
bundled version.
