Title:
  Firefox ends up with 2 different copies of sqlite loaded in to memory

Status in WebApps: libunity:
  Confirmed
Status in libunity-webapps package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in libunity-webapps source package in Quantal:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Firefox contains its own copy of sqlite which is updated in regular
  updates. Currently, libunity-webapps links against the system
  libsqlite causing 2 copies of it to be mapped in to memory at the same
  time. This results in symbol collisions and probably only currently
  works because the wind is blowing in the right direction. As the copy
  of sqlite shipped with Firefox changes in regular updates, this is
  likely to go wrong at some point in a future update.
