OK. The problem may be with any plugin and not just kexi sqlite plugin.
Did you install the software? I mean executing:
% sudo make install
(you don't need 'sudo' here if you have chosen to install koffice to a
subdirectory - for advanced users ther's such option:
http://techbase.kde.org/Getting_Started/Increased_Productivity_in_KDE4_with_Scripts#Setting_Up_the_Environment
)
PS: sometimes, especially when you install a plugin (sqlite driver is
a plugin) for the first time it helps to refresh system configuration
cache by hand. To do that, type as normal user:
% kbuildsycoca4 --noincremental
Optionally the cache is refreshed also when you restart your KDE4
session. But 1) this is "windows" way of doing things, 2) I do
understand not everyone even needs to run KDE4 _desktop to run KDE4
apps :)
