Filing bugs against reverse dependencies to migrate to sqlite 3 would be
a better start IMO.
Probably it is too late to convert everything for Jessie:

$ apt-cache rdepends sqlite
sqlite
Reverse Depends:
  phpbb3
 |movabletype-opensource
  sqlite:i386
  sqlite-doc
  qsf
  phpbb3
  lire
  imms-common
  csync2
  beancounter

Dear Release Team, should this package be released with Jessie?

Cheers,
Balint
