I think many modern Linux distribution sysmlink '/bin' to '/usr/bin'. Try to check it. Ex: $ ls -ld /bin lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 out 12 2020 /bin -> usr/bin/ Another way to check if both binaries are identical or not you can use (at least) two approaches: $ md5sum /usr/bin/gdalinfo /bin/gdalinfo 6860ebde8ce3109c9b4aa15a6460d598 /usr/bin/gdalinfo 6860ebde8ce3109c9b4aa15a6460d598 /bin/gdalinfo If they have the same signature they are the same, even if installed at different places. $ ls -li /usr/bin/gdalinfo /bin/gdalinfo 135464 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14488 mar 29 2020 /bin/gdalinfo* 135464 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 14488 mar 29 2020 /usr/bin/gdalinfo* That first number (135464) is the inode number of the file, if they are the same, the files are absolutely the same. > I suppose that with the -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/usr parameter, > this means that the version of GDAL that I built was in > /usr/bin/gdalinfo? > > Is there any way to determine where QGIS is looking for GDAL?

If different files the order will be that of the PATH environment variable. There is a script named 'whereiz' at: http://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/unix/upt/ch04_10.htm That search the PATH environment variable for the given command. For example: $ whereiz gdalinfo /usr/bin/gdalinfo /bin/gdalinfo In my case the '/usr/bin/' appears first in the PATH variable.
