Not sure if this will help or not but you could run the program 'file' on databases created by several methods and see what version it may report on them (if any).

file is supposed to detect and show information about the file formats and content formats and display them, but i dont know how much variety they support with sqlite databases.

You can download a build i made of file here :

You will probably have to run it from xterm but emelfm2 may automatically use it when showing file info and i may have created emelfm2 user command to log info to emelfm2 console.
