Building native extensions. This could take a while...
ERROR: Error installing sqlite3:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
current directory: /var/lib/gems/2.5.0/gems/sqlite3-1.4.1/ext/sqlite3
/usr/bin/ruby2.5 -r ./siteconf20190813-10918-113tafq.rb extconf.rb
checking for sqlite3.h... no
sqlite3.h is missing. Try 'brew install sqlite3',
'yum install sqlite-devel' or 'apt-get install libsqlite3-dev'
and check your shared library search path (the
location where your sqlite3 shared library is located).
*** extconf.rb failed ***
Could not create Makefile due to some reason, probably lack of necessary
libraries and/or headers. Check the mkmf.log file for more details. You may
need configuration options.

PROBLEM #3: Cannot bundle install
bundle install is needed to upgrade all gems to latest versions.
Problem:
> bundle install --without development test
Traceback (most recent call last):
1: from /usr/local/bin/bundle:23:in `<main>'
/usr/local/bin/bundle:23:in `load': cannot load such file -- /usr/share/rubygems-integration/all/gems/bundler-1.16.1/exe/bundle (LoadError)
Solution:
SOLUTION #1:
Ref: https://github.com/bundler/bundler/issues/6227
Just run:
gem update --system
gem uninstall bundler
gem install bundler
bundle install
this solution doesn’t not always work
SOLUTION #2: Use old bundler
https://www.redmine.org/issues/30353
gem install bundler -v 1.17.3 # Currently the latest bundler version < 2.0
bundle _1.17.3_ install
