Hi Clint,

 It's not that easy to enable the tests. Per policy, Debian packages
should build as root (or under fakeroot); but the tests has checks
against running them as root. The solution would be to drop cdbs and
use debhelper only, but I won't NMU such a big change to packaging.
But as Tomas Fasth seems to be MIA, I would like to adopt this package
when his MIA will be official.

Hi!

The reason you stated for not invoking the testsuite was CDBS badness.
I see sqlite3 doesn't use CDBS anymore for a couple years, since 3.7.5-1.

While the test suite doesn't test the stmt_status problem I just ran into
(#723812, no idea whose fault it is), a good pile of other bugs can be
caught immediately this way...

Hi Adam,
 Sure, it seems CDBS is fading out anyway.
 Upstream still has root user test in the testsuite. Just checked with
3.8.0.2 and got this:
-- cut --
attach-6.1... Ok
attach-6.2...
**** Tests do not work when run as root ****
make: *** [test] Error 1
-- cut --

Some tests were run and been successful. I may patch out the root
check and the problematic tests on the next upload.
