Provide a screenshot and describe the bug

I installed the last stable version of Archivebox using Pip (v0.7.1, or so pip list tells me) into a venv and everything I try to do results in a "[X] Error while loading configuration value: SQLITE_VERSION" failure, including just running archivebox --help.

No remote storage is used for ArchiveBox/ (I don't use data/ as the directory name because it conflicts with another project).

Steps to reproduce

1. `python -mvenv archivebox`
2. `. archivebox/bin/activate`
3. `pip install archivebox[sonic] yt-dlp yt-dlp-ejs playwright setuptools legacy-cgi`
4. `playwright install chromium`
5. `cd ArchiveBox` (this is where I have my archive, as well as ArchiveBox.conf.
6. `archivebox --help`

Logs or errors

[X] Error while loading configuration value: SQLITE_VERSION
    AttributeError: module 'sqlite3.dbapi2' has no attribute 'version'

    Check your config for mistakes and try again (your archive data is unaffected).

some of data/ is on a FUSE mount (e.g. SSHFS/RClone/S3/B2/Google Drive/Dropbox/etc.)

0.7.x doesn't support 3.14, only up to 3.13 I believe.
What OS are you on?

The dev branch does support 3.14 if you dont mind running an unstable version.

Arch Linux, updated as of 15 February 2026 (which is why I had to reinstall).

I also tried setting up the dev branch when that didn't work - commit a0be8fe7. I'll admit, I only tried for a couple of hours to set it up from a Git clone and got frustrated with it. I'll try again later.
