This is old, but for searchers ...

The library is default on many distributions but to compile sqlite with
readline, you need the "-dev" and optionally the "-dbg" packages with the
pieces needed for software development (as opposed to simple use) such as
header files.

Go in your package manager and search for readline. Select and install the
development and debug readline packages.

Go back to sqlite and do a configure and make.

You should now have command history.
