If you're building from source in your home directory, you can install
it by putting the appropriate .desktop in ~/.local/share/applications.

$ cd $YOUR_GEARY_CHECKOUT
$ cp build/desktop/geary.desktop ~/.local/share/applications/

Then you need to adjust the paths to be absolute so that they
reference your local build:

$ sed -i "s|Exec=|Exec=$PWD/|" ~/.local/share/applications/geary.desktop

Does that help?
