Hello,

With the release of LXD 4.6 [1], it should now be a lot easier for it to be 
brought to Debian:

"Dqlite changes

Shortly after LXD 4.5 was released, a major change was made to upstream 
dqlite.

Rather than relying on our fork of sqlite3 which was adding some hooks used to 
intercept filesystem writes and replicating to other nodes, we are now using a 
different approach to get VFS access from a standard sqlite3.

While invisible to users, this should help packagers a fair bit by removing 
two custom dependencies of LXD, that custom sqlite3 and libco.

LXD with dqlite can now use any standard sqlite3 of version 3.25 or higher."
