Hello Marco,
I'm not a expert, so maybe there is a better ways to do this.
I have this in my .bashrc: (I install the programs/libraries in ~/local)
export PATH=~/local/bin:~/bin:${PATH}
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=~/local/lib/pkgconfig/:${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}
Then, when I want to compile something, I use
./autogen --prefix=/home/jjardon/local
and then
make; make install
to compile (It will use the libraries manually installed in ~/local)
and install the program in ~/local
Hope helps,
