Could you try by installing sqlite3-dev first to see whether it works then?
Looks like you have some locally compiled sqlite3 and there could be an issue
that do_sqlite3 doesn't pick up that version.
do_sqlite3 implements the DataObjects API which is a generalized API for
running queries against an RDBMS, much like how JDBC is the standard for Java
and ADO for .NET.
