Yes, it would, but I wasn't sure which details to even start with.  Your points below help in that regard; thanks.

My installation has pretty much the same paths.  Clearly, the /usr/lib/libsqlite3.so.1 is the critical piece leading to my problem.

In fact, my (pretty recent cvs checkout of pkgsrc-2015Q1) databases/py-sqlite3/Makefile does include databases/sqlite3/buildlink3.mk.  Thus, I would have expected it to depend on it, but pkg_info indicates that it does not; it only depends on python.

Thus, I'm still confused about the way forward.  Why is the dependency not happening?  Thanks for any help.
