Bug#688328: spatialite-gui: Unable to create new SQLite DB

[Tom Gottfried]

Package: spatialite-gui
Version: 1.2.1-3
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

after starting spatialite-gui, click 'Files' -> 'Creating a new (empty) SQLite
DB', chose a filename and location.
An error message comes:

'CreateSpatialMetaData error: no such table: spatial_ref_sys'

click OK. Next error:
'CreateSpatialMetaData error: cannot rollback - no transaction is active'

Keep clicking OK: the error comes again and again. spatialite-gui can only be
stop by killing the process.

if any other information is needed, please ask! Thanks!
Regards,
Tom
