Sqlite comes installed with OS X Developer Tools. What is the quickest/best way to upgrade or rebuild the default binary to support Sqlite's fulltext features?

+1  A: 

The sqlite3 library is included as part of OS X in /usr/lib/. You should never attempt to modify or replace OS X system libraries. That could break your system and will likely get removed by a Software Update. Instead, install a separate copy and link your applications to that. For sqllite3, an easy solution is to install the version from MacPorts. You could also just build your own and install it in /usr/local/lib.
