Just to thank alexus for agreeing with my previous post on 04-06-2012 about 
running configure and make as normal use. But if sudo ./configure && sudo make 
is used should also work, although in my previous mail I discuss that it is not 
recommended.

Notice that:

( sudo ./configure && sudo make ) is not the same as ( sudo ./configure && make 
).
