Never tried it, but probably. Edit the configure script, then run make. =
You'd have to be root
to do the "make install" though. But if you just want to run it in your =
home directory, I imagine it'd work...

but got no decisive hints, will try your work around. Would this work if =
I build as user, not as administrator?
