I started off trying to build it in a directory under my home directory using the instructions here <https://grasswiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Compile_and_Install_Ubuntu#Dependencies>, but I could not get it to build. The only part of those instructions that I was not following were the path. So I started using the paths indicated in those instructions and then it would build. That is why my copy of the source is where it is.
Based on yall's comments, I now think it was something other than the path where I was storing the source code, but I have no idea what.
