I don't think Kobo changed SQLite version, just turned on the write-ahead logging. The problem for calibre is that the Python library the driver was using used an older SQlite library under Windows that didn't support this. I had to change to a different Python library to get the support. Back-porting this as a user plugin for calibre 1.48 to run on an WinXP machine is more work than I am interested in doing.
