Hello,
The removal of sqlite in PHP 5.4 has not been thoroughly thought through.
In the documentation it says it has been moved to PECL.
Then you go to PECL and the only thing you find is the version from 2004,
which states that this package is not maintained and furthermore you find a
link to the former sqlite documentation on php.net, which then points you to
PECL...
Round and round we go.
Is this what you're looking for: http://svn.php.net/viewvc/pecl/sqlite/trunk/ ?
This not the only problem. Copying the ext/sqlite directory from php 5.3.10 to
the php 5.4 tree and running a 'buildconf --force' does not work either.
Not surprising. There was a reason it was dropped.
So now there are several web apps (e.g. Roundcube, Serendipity, ...) which do
not have an sqlite3 abstraction layer, which means that you are pretty much
screwed, if you use sqlite.
Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with the fact that sqlite was
removed from the core, but at least there should be a) a correct documentation
how to get the functionality back and b) a way to get it working at all.
This was undoubtedly omitted due to lack of resources. Would you like some
assistance to show you how you can contribute to the PHP project to help out other
people hitting the same problem. Showing them how to migrate to sqlite3 is
the preferred path.
