Message:

$ Build 438/Sql Alpha
+ Removed all SQLite Code and References.
+ Updated the SQL Wrapper, and all Automake files to now link in and also Detect MySql? in the configure scripts.
+ Added detection for OpenSSL, not in use yet, but will add encryption for passwords.

and anything else of intertest once everything is moved over to the SQL Backend.

This is still an interm develop update release, the MySql? backend
is still a WIP, and the Husky SMAPI Library will be removed shortly.
