Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 35

Detailed Description
The use of SHA-1 is no longer permitted for Digital Signatures or authentication in RHEL-9. Due to this reason, there is a need to remove SHA-1 extension from sqlite in RHEL-9 and therefore also Fedora. The removal of the extension was discussed with sqlite upstream development, who confirmed, that it is safe to remove it and should not impact other functionality of sqlite.
