On Ubuntu, I use these commands to install Spatialite :

::

sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:ubuntugis/ppa
sudo apt-get update > /dev/null

sudo apt-get install libgdal-dev libproj-dev libgeos-dev libspatialite-dev spatialite-bin

And its python module pysqlite :

::

wget http://pysqlite.googlecode.com/files/pysqlite-2.6.3.tar.gz
tar -zxvf pysqlite-2.6.3.tar.gz
cd pysqlite-2.6.3
sed -i "s/define=SQLITE_OMIT_LOAD_EXTENSION//g" setup.cfg
python setup.py install
cd .. 

========= LOAD DATA

Initialize Spatialite DB :

::

spatialite database.db "SELECT InitSpatialMetaData();"

::

python manage.py syncdb

Load all weather station instances from GeoJSON :

::

python manage.py shell

>>> from django.core.serializers import deserialize
>>> 
>>> source = open('Pub9volA130819x.geojson')
>>> for ws in deserialize('geojson', source):
...     ws.save()

python manage.py runserver

Have a look at those 12 000 markers ! (ouch, you hear that ? That's your CPU fan...)
