Hi,
Or you might want to consider adding --prefix=/usr (and a few other path arguments) when running configure so that things land in expected places for your system. By default configure assumes you can't install in standard locations and you end up using /usr/local instead.
many of us prefer additional , 3rd party, home-built tools to go into /usr/local/ and /opt/ rather than spewed all over the main OS where our friends at the distro operations centre play with files :-) alan
