set sqlite3 for django in centos 5.3

I upgraded the python in my centos from 5.4 to 5.5. However, when I try to set up the django to use the sqlite3 database, and it stop working: I cannot get sqlite3 for python 5.5 as the rpm already installed for 5.4. And the one for 5.4 give me some unresolved symbol errors.

I workaround this by download the source from pysqlite. and then run:

python setup.py build_static install 

Now: 

manage.py syncdb

works.
