On a side note, you don't need administrative priviledges (sudo) to
compile software.  just for the 'install' part, if you want to write to
directories you normally don't have access to. In most cases, you could
point the --prefix argument to the configure script to some directory
where you have write access to, like, say, your $HOME.
