Hello as per my knowledge you cannot install any application in the directories that in the path like /usr/local/bin,/usr/bin/,/bin
Code:
echo $PATH
to see the contents of the environment variable path.
So if you really want to install then install in your home directory like /home/peter/bin and add this directory to the path variable like
Code:
export PATH=$PATH:/home/peter/bin/
Then if you are compiling the source code you need to modify the Makefile.
open the Makefile using some editor and look for the BUILD_DIR:= attribute
and change it to /home/blah_blah. (your home path directory )
Otherwise if you are doing a binary then simply copy (or move the binary to that directory )
Hope it helps.
Regards.
