You should be able to run it as /usr/local/bin/okular. Be sure to run it after the export+kbuildsycoca4 commands and *in the same shell instance*. Btw, in order for "make install" to work, I guess you've run it as root. You can avoid installing to a system-wide folder by just using a /home/yourname/subfolder instead of /usr/local. Installing to a local folder is good because you don't risk overwriting files provided by your distro. The distro-provided system-wide installation and your local one can coexist.
