Sometimes simply knowing where to look can solve problems ... sounds
like you have most of the install part down. Take a look @
http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Software-Building-HOWTO-7.html
Particularaly the area talking about editing the makefile to point to
cnon standard library locations.
In addition here are a few commands that may be of assistance to you:
// updates the database of files on the machine for searching
updatedb
//general search
// find [location] [commands]
// \* is a wildcard
// following finds all files that start with foo and end with recursively from root
find / foo\*bar
// to find running processes
ps
// to kill a proccess
// you get the # of the process from ps
kill #
// to see if a particular process is running (httpd in this example)
ps ax | grep httpd
// if you want to see a programs dependencies (ssh in this example)
ldd ssh
Hope some of that helps.
