+# lintian correctly finds a version of sqlite in the sqlcipher libs. SQLCipher
+# is a customized version of SQLite3 that adds encryption support.
+# Unfortunately, this cannot be implemented as a plain plugin to SQLite
+# because it is not possible to make the encryption transparent without
+# modifying the core of SQLite. For example, with SQLCipher, you only need to
+# know about sqlite_key()/sqlite_rekey() and the related PRAGMAS, and the rest
+# of the API and SQL calls are exactly the same as SQLite. I believe this is
+# not even possible using the SQLite author's proprietary encryption plugin.
+#
+# Some more info on its design is available here: http://sqlcipher.net/design
