Raoul Snyman proposed the following answer:
Hi Aaron,

I presume you followed the instructions on
http://wiki.openlp.org/Testing:Mac_OS_X_Testing_Environment to get your
environment up and running?

The "uno" module is for OpenOffice.org/LibreOffice integration.
Currently we don't have LibreOffice integration on OS X, because that
module is not packaged with LibreOffice for OS X. It's only needed for
the presentations plugin, and the document importer. It's absence won't
stop OpenLP from running, so don't worry if you can't install it.

The SQLite module needed is version 1.0.1 which almost no one packages
at this stage. A couple of the Linux distributions do, but even so, this
is an optional module and only affects the OpenLP 1.x importers. The
actual name you use with easy_install/pip is "pysqlite", but the only
version available is the version that is already packaged in Python, and
not the one we want.

MySQLdb and psycopg2 are both only used if you're using a database other
than the default SQLite. You can install MySQLdb and psycopg2 from
MacPorts, using the package names, "py-mysql" and, "py-psycopg2". The
actual name to use with easy_install/pip for MySQLdb is "MySQL-python".

I hope this helps!
