The default Ubuntu PHP package does not include the PDO SQLite extension. How can I install the SQLite PDO extension? Is there a package that one can easily install via apt-get?

just do:
sudo apt-get install php5-sqlite
Next time, you can find it via:
apt-cache search php | grep sqlite

1Don't forget to restart your Apache server: "sudo service apache2 restart". You can check if sqlite is installed through a php webpage with a call to phpinfo(); or through command line by running "php -m"– JanDec 16, 2016 at 8:34
In ubuntu 16.04 there is no php5-sqlite.
You need:
sudo apt-get install php7.0-sqlite
sudo service apache2 restart
Just for clarification, I recently got into this issue, for php7.2 I had to run
sudo apt-get install php-sqlite3
which did install sqlite-3 there was no package named php-sqlite
php5-sqlite - SQLite module for php5 php-mdb2-driver-sqlite - PHP PEAR module to provide a SQLite driver for MDB2
First check your php version:
php -v
Then install the extension:
sudo apt-get install php[version-here]-sqlite3
For example, for PHP 7.2:
sudo apt-get install php7.2-sqlite3
Restart your apache server:
sudo service apache2 restart
List the modules and it should print sqlite:
php -m | grep sqlite
