you should be able to install it in your home dir, by setting  
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX to a path in your home dir with ccmake.

You should rather set the PYTHONPATH to the right path. Once  
installed, there in only one path to set.
If you want to use it in the build tree, there are 2 paths to set  
(search in the list archives if you want to go that way)

Both LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PYTHONPATH can be set in your ~/.bashrc, for  
example.
