It did when I first tried install-from-source a few months ago, and it 
took me a while to clean up the mess. More precisely, it put a lot of 
stuff into /usr/local, overwriting files in /usr/local/share that 
Ubuntu-installed software depended on. If that has changed in the 
meantime, that's great.

I just did. No difference. Same config.log, same Makefile, same error 
messages.

Konrad.
