Most people probably use supybot-wizard to generate their configuration (this
script asks them specific information, such as bot nickname, server, and
password.  It also creates the appropriate directories for a Supybot
instance).  It might turn out to be harder for the user to have to manually do
a lot of this, including finding and hand-editing the default config.

I could do this, but my original justification for not doing so was so that
users that chose to install the old PySQLite would still have these plugins
available to them.  Is there any sort of packaging policy on how these kind of
"optional" dependencies should be handled?
