When you get the svn version, create the directory "/home/yourhome/local/" then do a ".configure --prefix=/home/yourhome/local/" This will then create the make file so that when you do a make install your library and headers are stored in subdirectories of /home/yourhome/local/ Running against this library is a little more tricky, drop in #sword and we can chat about it. I hope this helps.
