Hello,

Indeed.  Commit c5a2e1ffcb029f50c4c18352cf378b61c41c625e made
guile-sqlite3 a requirement, but =E2=80=98configure=E2=80=99 is supposed to=
 error out if
it=E2=80=99s not found.

Mark, any idea why =E2=80=98configure=E2=80=99 didn=E2=80=99t fail for you?=
  What does
=E2=80=98config.log=E2=80=99 say?

I=E2=80=99m a bit reluctant to that, in part because it=E2=80=99s a develop=
ment
environment where we can have different expectations IMO.

Ludo=E2=80=99.
