SQLite3 support in Python2.5

I was sort of porting PySQLite for Python2.5 since I got couple of requests from people who needed that to use SQLite in their Maemo Python applications. I had already packaged PySQLite and I was just accidentally going through the sources of Pymaemo and I noticed that Python2.5 package depends on libsqlite3. I was sort of wondering why that is and only then I remembered that SQLite3 support is there in Python2.5 by default. :) The sqlite3 module documentation shows good examples on how to use it.

    Hi Teemu,

    PyMaemo goal is to provide python bindings for every library available on the platform, so if some is not available, just report it’s missing before digging into it… possible it was forgot or it was having some problems, in both cases you’ll save your time doing and maintaining it :-) These days I’ve just noticed that id3lib were missing and it was added to the next release.

    Thanks!

    Ok, cool. Thanks for the info. Anyhow, it’s always good to refresh one’s debian packaging skills. :D Btw… It would be nice if Python Imaging Library was available by default.
