Although OS X comes with Python installed, users can use framework
installers (`2.6`__ and `2.7`__ are available) provided by
installers (`2.7`__, `3.2`__ and `3.3`__ are available) provided by
the Python Software Foundation.  An advantage to using the installer is
that OS X's Python will remain "pristine" for internal operating system
use.

^^^^^^^^^

If you are on Python 2.6, you will also have to compile pysqlite2, because
``SpatiaLite`` must be loaded as an external extension, and the required
``enable_load_extension`` method is only available in versions 2.5+ of
pysqlite2. Thus, download pysqlite2 2.6, and untar::

    $ wget http://pysqlite.googlecode.com/files/pysqlite-2.6.3.tar.gz
    $ tar xzf pysqlite-2.6.3.tar.gz
    $ cd pysqlite-2.6.3

Next, use a text editor (e.g., ``emacs`` or ``vi``) to edit the ``setup.cfg`` file
to look like the following:

.. code-block:: ini

    [build_ext]
    #define=
    include_dirs=/usr/local/include
    library_dirs=/usr/local/lib
    libraries=sqlite3
    #define=SQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION

or if you are on Mac OS X:

.. code-block:: ini

    [build_ext]
    #define=
    include_dirs=/Library/Frameworks/SQLite3.framework/unix/include
    library_dirs=/Library/Frameworks/SQLite3.framework/unix/lib
    libraries=sqlite3
    #define=SQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION

.. note::

    The important thing here is to make sure you comment out the
    ``define=SQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION`` flag and that the ``include_dirs``
    and ``library_dirs`` settings are uncommented and set to the appropriate
    path if the SQLite header files and libraries are not in ``/usr/include``
    and ``/usr/lib``, respectively.

After modifying ``setup.cfg`` appropriately, then run the ``setup.py`` script
to build and install::

    $ sudo python setup.py install
