[ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: sqlite3-3.7.13-1


PACKAGE DESCRIPTION
===================

Homepage: http://sqlite.org/
License : Public Domain (no, really!)

SQLite is a C library providing local database storage with a SQL interface. Unlike most SQL database systems, SQLite does not accept connections from remote users. Access to the database requires access to the file system hosting it; SQLite thus relies on the operating system's file security for access control. In exchange for this limitation, you get a smaller, faster database engine that's easy to embed within a program.


CYGWIN-SPECIFIC CHANGES SINCE LAST RELEASE ==========================================

This is a *test* version which reverts the patch added to 3.7.12.1-1, which caused problems with Subversion as a side effect, particularly in systems using non-Cygwin programs with their svn checkout trees.

Through other channels, I've already gotten enough positive reports about this from those affected that I'm considering making it the current release. I'm half-expecting SQLite 3.7.14 will come out soon though; if that happens soon enough, it will become "curr" and 3.7.13 "prev", with all the older versions going away. If 3.7.14 takes longer to appear than I hope it will, I'll promote 3.7.13-1 to "curr" and drop the ill-fated 3.7.12.1-1 release so that 3.7.3-1 becomes "prev" again instead.

In the meantime, this means you need to manually select 3.7.13-1 in setup.exe if you want to try it.


INSTALL OR UPGRADE NOTES ========================

Manually select it in setup.exe's "Select Packages" screen by clicking the third column's "Keep" label on all installed "sqlite" packages until it says "3.7.13-1".
