That's only the shell, not the library. If if's linked to the Ubuntu-installed `libsqlite3` then you are still using the one Ubuntu installed library. The easiest way to determine whether that's the case is to run:

```
ldd ./sqlite3
```

From the directory where you have your sqlite3, to check which libraries it's linking against.

Also don't forget that "." is *not* in the PATH on Linux by default like it is on Windows (and, generally speaking, should never be added to the PATH on Unix-style systems). What that means is that if you are running it like:

```
sqlite3 ...
```

instead of:

```
./sqlite3 ...
```

then you are almost certainly running the system-installed version instead of your local copy.
