title: unable to update sqlite3 on mac osx?
body: <p>i want to install newest sqlite3 on my mac osx. i am trying this from last 6 hours but still not succeed.Here are the steps i have followed.I have tried this site</p>
  
  <p>mkdir ~/src
  cd ~/src
  curl <a href="http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-3.6.18.tar.gz" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-3.6.18.tar.gz</a> | tar zx
  cd sqlite-3.6.18
  autoconf
  ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
  make
  sudo make install</p>
  
  <p>//check what version of SQLite is installed
  sqlite3 --version
   3.6.18</p>
  
  <p>which sqlite3
   /usr/local/bin/sqlite3</p>
  
  <p>but it fails</p>
  
  <p>but i manually downloaded the sqlite3 from the address below
  <a href="http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-amalgamation-3.6.22.tar.gz" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.sqlite.org/sqlite-amalgamation-3.6.22.tar.gz</a></p>
  
  <p>and then tried the above scriot</p>
  
  <p>the description of the above link is</p>
  
  <p>A tarball containing the amalgamation  together with an configure script and makefile for building it. This is the recommended source distribution for all Unix and Unix-like platforms.</p>
  
  <p>and i have also downloaded the </p>
  
  <p>Precompiled Binaries For Mac OS X
      sqlite3-3.6.22-osx-x86.zip
  A command-line program for accessing and modifying SQLite version 3.* databases. For x86 Macs running Leopard (OS 10.5) only.</p>
  
  <p>but still i am unable to install.I have also read that modifying the default sqlite3 will cause some application stopped working because apple has a modified version of sqlite.</p>
  
  <p>does some one knows how do i install the new sqlite3 and use that without removing the default one.I am not familiar with terminal commands.</p>
  
  <p>ok here is an update
  i have installed the sqlite in a new folder in /users/admin/sqlite3new
  but when i run sqlite3 from terminal it shows older version...</p>
  
  <p>also if i directly executes the bin file i am unable to open database is there any other way to open database?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
