[GNC] Trouble finding executable after build

This is the right question. I don't see a run of 

make
sudo make install

If you don't run these successfully, nothing will appear in /usr/local.

Note make install is run via sudo. On a typical linux system ordinary users 
are not allowed to write into /usr/local unless they have administrator 
privileges and invoke those. That's what "sudo" does.

Regards,

Geert
