What sort of a system is this?  I'm not familiar with pkgsrc but it seems to
have provided you with an incomplete Python package, or your source build
produced an incomplete result.

You've got the Python part of sqlite, but you're missing the _sqlite3.so
dynamic library.  On my (Ubuntu) machine this is found in
/usr/lib/python2.5/lib-dynload. This is generally provided/built as part of
Python 2.5, so your Python build/installation seems to be a bit broken.
