Comment 1 for bug 722648

Thank you for the report. After a bit of deliberation with my colleague we were able to finally figure out what is going on here with sqlite.

In PHP 5.2, support for SQLite3 was provided by PDO_SQLITE while the -sqlite extension provided support for sqlite2, etc. See [1]. As of PHP 5.3.0 [2], support for SQLite3 is bundled with PHP and enabled by default. Though there is no -sqlite subpackage, if you look at a phpinfo() page you will see both PDO_SQLITE and SQLite3 support enabled:

PDO drivers => mysql, odbc, sqlite
pdo_sqlite
PDO Driver for SQLite 3.x => enabled
SQLite Library => 3.3.6
sqlite3
SQLite3 support => enabled
SQLite3 module version => 0.7-dev
SQLite Library => 3.7.3
sqlite3.extension_dir => no value => no value

Please let us know if you have any further questions about that. To clarify this situation, we will add 'Provides: php53u-sqlite' under php53u-common.
