What you have installed is the SQLite library and the Python bindings, both pieces come now included in Python 2.5 (if you were using an older Python version you would have to install Ubunto packages named libsqlite3 and python-sqlite3 or similar). But what dbshell does is to execute tue command line client for your backend (mysql for MySQL, etc,...) aleady configured to work with the database of your Django project, and for SQLite that command line client application is sqlite3 that in Debian/Ubuntu comes in the sqlite3 package: http://packages.ubuntu.com/cgi-bin/search_packages.pl?searchon=names&version=all&exact=1&keywords=sqlite3 Note the "A command line interface for SQLite 3" part. Install it using the package management tool of the distribution and try again.
