It's just not verified by the Slax developers. That doesn't mean 
it's not trusted. It's the same as with Ubuntu packages from the 
Universe repo, or Firefox plugins which haven't been verified by the 
Mozilla team. None of them should be used where security matters, 
but on a testing system, the danger should be rather low.

If you limit yourself to strictly distro developer approved packages 
than I fear it's going to be hard to find one.

If all else fails, you could probably use the _sqlite3.so from 
another distro which has Python 2.7 officially.

You don't trust an unverified package from the Slax site, but you 
would trust some other stranger on the python-list, to not give you 
a manipulated .so? You're either too paranoid or not paranoid enough ;-)
