The naming of these packages is messed up. I listed a couple of the
variations at http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2007/q4/0321.html. Part of
the problem is that the pysqlite library has a major version of 2, but
it's built on SQLite 3.

The module required is included by default in Python 2.5, at least when
you get it from python.org. Some distributions split it up. In MacPorts
you have to install the py25-sqlite3 port (yet another name).
