[Pkg-graphite-maint] Bug#739517: Bug#739517: graphite-web: Depends artificially on unneeded and deprecated SQLite 2 Python driver (python-sqlite package)

Hello,

> The Debian package of graphite-web depends on python-sqlite which links
> and provides access to the old SQLite C lib version 2.x. But Django 
> doesn't support (and never has) SQLite 2.x but rather version 3.x.
> 
> jessie ships with a default Python version that already includes a 
> working SQLite3 stack in the standard library so the erroneous
> dependency should be simply removed.


thanks for your report - that's correct Graphite Web works without the python-sqlite
library. I have tested it.

Will upload a fix soon.

Thanks,
	Jonas
