Public bug reported:
The recent upload of sqlite 3.11 to xenial-proposed has rendered
mediascanner2 non-functional. From the release notes, it seems the
ability to register new full text search tokenizers has been disabled by
default:
http://sqlite.org/releaselog/3_11_0.html
This means that mediascanner2 fails to open the index. We can't switch
to any of the built-in tokenizers because they don't handle CJK text, so
the only option seems to be to re-enable this functionality despite it
being a potential security vulnerability for apps that let untrusted
code run arbitrary SQL.
