May I humbly suggest that your way is both more difficult and less general
than using MacPorts?
With MacPorts installed, it's one command:
sudo port install sqlite3
That's it.
Granted, if MacPorts is not installed, you have to install it first. It
implies modifying the PATH once, and even then, in most cases, the installer
does it for you.
I will not lecture on the many other advantages of MacPorts. Maybe only one
thing. To keep all installed ports up to date, simply do:
sudo port selfupdate
I don't use Fink, but I suspect this applies to Fink too.
Respectfully,
Jean-Denis
