Comment (by atagar):
Again, the trouble is that pip does not account for builtins. It only
knows about pip managed packages. Here on Ubuntu (and most platforms)
sqlite3 is built in, yet if I run 'pip install pysqlite' it still attempts
to install it and I'm unsure if that's safe.
If you'd like we could try a conditional dependency...
{{{
'dependencies = ['stem'] if SQLITE_AVAILABLE else ['stem', 'pysqlite']
}}}
But quick look around seems to indicate there be dragons...
