sqlite-utils 4.2.1

Release: sqlite-utils 4.2.1 Fixes a crashing bug in sqlite-utils 4.2 . I'd introduced code that looks like this: from typing_extensions import Self It turned out the typing-extensions package was not listed as a dependency for sqlite-utils - it was installed by one of the other dependencies in the dev dependency group , but when you uvx sqlite-utils directly you don't get those dependencies. As part of fixing this I figured out how to run a smoke test to ensure the CLI tool still works even without those dev dependencies, which can be run from the project checkout: uv run --isolated --no-default-groups sqlite-utils --help The --no-default-groups argument prevents it from installing that default dev group, and --isolated means that even if there is a .venv/ folder containing extra dependencies they will be ignored for the duration of that uv run command.
