Pythin docs say that sqlite3 is included since python-2.5: https://docs.python.org/2/library/sqlite3.html

But 'import sqlite3' it fails:

> $ python3.5 sq.py
> Traceback (most recent call last):
>   File "sq.py", line 1, in <module>
>     import sqlite3
>   File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/sqlite3/__init__.py", line 23, in <module>
>     from sqlite3.dbapi2 import *
>   File "/usr/local/lib/python3.5/sqlite3/dbapi2.py", line 27, in <module>
>     from _sqlite3 import *
> ImportError: No module named '_sqlite3'

Verified in 2.7, 3.5, 3.6.

The sqlite (like the gdbm, bsddb and tkinter modules) that depend on external/third-party libraries are separated into their own ports. lang/python* ports include a pkg-message to this effect, including instructions on how/where to get them.

-------------
Note that some standard Python modules are provided as separate ports
as they require additional dependencies. They are available as:

bsddb           databases/py-bsddb
gdbm            databases/py-gdbm
sqlite3         databases/py-sqlite3
tkinter         x11-toolkits/py-tkinter
