To be more clear: Garret: No, you do not need to uninstall the ports  
that depend on sqlite3. You can, but you most likely don't have to.  
Just forcibly uninstall all versions of sqlite3. Then install  
sqlite3. Run these commands:


sudo port -f uninstall sqlite3 @3.3.15_0+darwin_8
sudo port -f uninstall sqlite3 @3.3.16_0+darwin_8
sudo port -f uninstall sqlite3 @3.3.17_0+darwin_8
sudo port -f uninstall sqlite3 @3.4.1_0+darwin_8
sudo port -f uninstall sqlite3 @3.5.1_0+darwin_8
sudo port -f uninstall sqlite3 @3.5.2_0+darwin_8
sudo port -f uninstall sqlite3 @3.5.3_1+darwin_8
sudo port clean --work sqlite3
sudo port install sqlite3
