So this sounds like some problem with how "make install" sets
permissions on directories on your system: it ends up disallowing your
user access to those files. Or maybe you should follow "make install"
by a suitable chmod command, to make those files accessible?
I don't know enough about sudo to help you more, but maybe someone
else here does? The main question to answer, from my POV, is whether
this is something we could address in our "make install", or something
only you can fix on your system.
Thanks.
