Am I suppose to change sudoers' default permissions? This problem has been frustrating me for a while especially considering I have successfully installed GNU Radio on RHEL before.

Right now I am trying in /home/$USER/workspace and I think that could of done the trick.

Downloading and compiling code isn't something that requires root privilege, so those bits just run as an ordinary user. Possibly Ubuntu sets up /usr/local to be regular-user writeable, but that would be a horrible security flaw.
