Emacs upstream added a default dependency on SQLite and it seems that the generated package links with the system sqlite:

$ ldd /usr/bin/emacs |grep sqlite
libsqlite3.so.0 => /usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.0 (0x00007fca1e6ac000)

It probably won't break many users since SQLite is ubiquitous theses days, but it might break very minimal installations, particularly with emacs-nox.
This task depends upon

FWIW, sqlite is pulled in via pacman...so it's pretty hard not to have it, even in the most minimalist of Arch env's. But yes it can happen e.g.  FS#64098

I decided to open the bug because it might be an unintended dependency since it's default in upstream.
