>Description:
The latest update to databases/sqlite3 has introduced a BUILD_DEPENDS
on lang/tcl. This is unhelpful for server administrators as it adds another unwanted
package when using e.g. portupgrade to manage packages. As far as I'm aware, tcl isn't
a necessity for building a functional sqlite3 library/cli program.
