I think it worked! I tried to the make -n install method and found this: /usr/bin/install -c -d /usr/local/lib ./libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c libsqlite3.la /usr/local/lib /usr/bin/install -c -d /usr/local/bin ./libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c sqlite3 /usr/local/bin /usr/bin/install -c -d /usr/local/include /usr/bin/install -c -m 0644 sqlite3.h /usr/local/include /usr/bin/install -c -d /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig; /usr/bin/install -c -m 0644 sqlite3.pc /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig;
So since everything about sqlite3 had *sql* in it, i just did $ su -c "rm *sql*" for those directories. Good as new!
