bug#2313: 23.0.90; sql-sqlite: --password, --user, --server won't work with sqlite

when calling sql-sqlite, it asks for a user, a password, a host
to connect to a database. Problem is sqlite3 (dunno for other
sqlite versions) will refuse to do anything with these parameters
and just dies.

Here is the output of sqlite3 -help on my machine (slackware
GNU/linux):

Usage: sqlite3 [OPTIONS] FILENAME [SQL]
FILENAME is the name of an SQLite database. A new database is created
if the file does not previously exist.
OPTIONS include:
   -init filename       read/process named file
   -echo                print commands before execution
   -[no]header          turn headers on or off
   -bail                stop after hitting an error
   -interactive         force interactive I/O
   -batch               force batch I/O
   -column              set output mode to 'column'
   -csv                 set output mode to 'csv'
   -html                set output mode to HTML
   -line                set output mode to 'line'
   -list                set output mode to 'list'
   -separator 'x'       set output field separator (|)
   -nullvalue 'text'    set text string for NULL values
   -version             show SQLite version

I guess this patch would be enough:

and the mandatory ChangeLog entry:

2009-02-12  Xavier Maillard  <[email protected]>

	* sql.el (sql-connect-sqlite, sql-product-alist): user, password
	and server are irrelevant for sqlite, remove them.


Hope that'll help
