Almost ready.

It turns out that those changes were already done. I just removed the
unnecessary build dependency on sqlite-dev.

I also updated the standards version. Aparantly no change is needed.

There is one error I get from lintian that I can't figure out:

E: asterisk-addons source: outdated-autotools-helper-file asterisk-ooh323c/config/config.guess 2003-01-10
N:
N:   The referenced file has a time stamp older than year 2004 and the
N:   package does not build-depend on autotools-dev and therefore
N:   apparently does not update it. This usually means that the source
N:   package will not work correctly on all currently released
N:   architectures.

Simply try to replace file? Try it with other architectures? Feed it to
the the buildd for a "second opinion"?
