ImportError : No module named _sqlite3 on GAE

While trying to start local Google App Engine (v1.3.8) Server on my Fedora 14 with Python 2.5 (installed from source) I get the importerror

ImportError: No module named _sqlite3

I have the following package installed - sqlite, sqlite-devel, python2.5, python2.7. I did some Google and it looks like this error开发者_StackOverflow comes when there is no C binding for sqlite. However, since I have both the sqlite and sqlite-devel installed C bindings should be present. I get this same error when I do

import sqlite3

on Python console. What possibly can I do to resolve this error?

Install sqlite-devel and rebuild Python.

This works equally on Ubuntu 10.10 using

$ sudo aptitude install sqlite3 libsqlite3-dev

and rebuilding Python.
