Had a quick look around the rest of the stackoverflow village, and found this:
"error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1" in virtualenv
It seems similar, but doesn't have much to do with sqlite. Regardless, the solutions offered there did not work for this problem.
I have installed sqlite using sudo apt-get install sqlite, sqlite3 using sudo apt-get instal sqlite3 and installed sqlitebrowser using sudo apt-get install sqlitebrowser.
There are several other options that zsh autocomplete gives me for sqlite, but they mostly look like documentation or unrelated specialized extensions.
I searched for possible other dependencies using Aptitude, as follows (aptitude search sqlite):
http://0bin.net/paste/-uv52OUbPGa5t-RJ#6VI1bgLbKqdhTUwBue0pO9yF63F3yfF++GtozB0ZI7S
I don't think it would be wise to go down the list and install whichever libraries strike my fancy, trying each time along the way, when I'm sure someone else has run into this problem before.
The PySQLite documentation doesn't seem to have much information on Debian dependencies, either. https://readthedocs.org/search/project/?q=dependency&selected_facets=project_exact%3Apysqlite
My theory is I just need The Right Library. If you don't know the right one with which to make an answer, please feel free to comment with advice on how to start searching more productively.
