I know this question has been answered, but other people might have the same problem as I did. I hope this helps someone, because I spent three f***ing days stuck on this.

As far as I have found out, there is a faulty file in /usr/local/lib called libsqlite3.so.0 which points to libsqlite3.so.0.8.6. I renamed the file in case it was needed for something. With the command:

cd /usr/local/lib

sudo mv libsqlite3.so.0 ./libsqlite3.so.0.back

But you can also delete it: rm libsqlite3.so.0

This solved my problems, and I hope they solve yours as well :)
