Never just perform ./configure && make && make install.
Never.

Always do first:
./configure --help
Then read.

Then think.

Most of times, re-read.

Then you would run the configure script associated with chosen options.

Then you check what the script told you, dev put colorrs in logs, thanks to
them.

Sometimes you would have to install missing stuff on system side to satisfy
automagical dependencies.

Then re-run the script. Re-check,

You are finally happy? Now you can run make && make install.

If you really did read configuration options proposed by this configure
script, there is absolutely no pain switching from sernet version to a
compiled one (hint: --enable-fhs).

Sorry about that but "./configure && make && make install" is not viable to
obtain what you expected. It is the way to obtain the default binaries
(which options?) in the default place (/usr/local but how things are
organized in that folder?).
