Saw that, thank you.

Well, my nephews often play FlightGear on a computer that is still
running wheezy, so I backported it for them. The previous versions were
trivial (IIRC, the only requirement was to backport a recent enough
openscenegraph by simple rebuild), but 3.4 is a bit more tricky because
of the aforementioned libraries---hts_engine and sqlite---and the
webgui. So I thought I would leave a trace here in case someone wanted
to do the same...

(this is not targeted at backports.debian.org, as I can't guarantee to
apply all security fixes in time to these packages)
