Re: [Tlf-devel] Installing tlf as non-root user

Yes.

If you've also installed hamlib locally (see INSTALL file in hamlib source) to
build tlf locally with that you would do 
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$HOME/local/lib/pkgconfig/ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/local
--enable-hamlib
and then to start tlf it would be 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/local/lib/ tlf
or put LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$HOME/local/lib to your .bashrc file.
