I believe that it is supposed to come with python, but I just downloaded python, compiled from source and the _sqlite3.so is not where it should be.
A similar problem was described here: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/no-sqlite3.so-in-usrlib python2.5lib-dynload-599027/ I tried recompiling with sqlite3 installed, but that didn't help which led me to this: http://www.oreillynet.com/onlamp/blog/2006/11/python_25_sqlite_and_the_obvio .html Which contains the reference to the header files. A potential complication is that I'm attempting to do this in a non-standard directory (i.e. Not /usr/bin) because of potential conflicts with the older version of python and because I'm not 100% confident in what I'm doing so I don't want to have root while I'm trying this out.
