Description

SQLite 3.28+ supports EXCLUSION and fixed distances in window expressions.
SQLite 3.30.1+ supports SQL 2003 FILTER (WHERE ...) in aggregate expressions.
SQLite 3.31+ supports virtual fields.

Ubuntu Focal ships with SQLite 3.31.1 (which will still by supported by Django).
Debian Bullseye ships with 3.34.1 (which will still by supported by Django) and will EOL in July 2024.
Python 3.10 ships with 3.35.4(5).

​SQLite 3.30.1 was released in October 2019. SQLite version support seems like a similar situation as GEOS libraries which we generally support about 5 years after released.
