What is the issue?

Installed 0.9.5.

Noticed that there are now db.sqlite* files in with the app.log and server.log.

Looking at the app.log I was looking at the logged messages (attached below)

Some of the files don't seem to exist in the current main branch - did 0.9.5 get released from a dev branch or something else?

Relevant log output

This actually started happening with Windows in v0.9.4.

@jmorganca @dhiltgen
In discussion over on Discord - it seems like the Settings UI that now exists in the tray comes from a private repo. The statement was "The core engine is MIT licensed, you can build a binary without the settings UI." So the fact that the statement implies that the settings UI might not be MIT is a bit concerning.

However, there is still no information or understanding on why the release for this repo contains artifacts from a different repo, why there were no release notes stating such. The feedback seems to be to build from source to not include it - which while an option seems to be what the release on the repo's page is for. To package what is in the repo.

It might be beneficial to have a plain installer built from here, and then an additional one download for the new settings panel, or make it configurable on whether it should be included during the install, with the default to "No" or something, might be an option.

with v0.10.0 just being released, there appears to be way more than the sqlite dbs being present to be concerned with.
