[gdal-dev] Compiling gdal 1.11.1 on ubuntu 14.10

Hi,
I compiled QGIS 2.7 successfully on ubuntu 14.10, and then noticed that 
it had gdal 1.10, so I downloaded the source for gdal 1.11.1 and 
compiled it.
The trouble is that running gdalinfo --version still gives me the 1.10 
version.

Can anyone spot my deliberate error?

This is a new system for experimenting with, so I am able to nuke it and 
start again by reloading ubuntu if need be.
My goal is to fiddle with QGIS dev, python dev, mapserver and postgis.
I'd like GRASS and  OTB  as well, plus all the "normal" dependencies 
like gdal, ogr, proj.....
(So if someone has a recipe for the correct installation sequence so 
that all the dependencies work out with their correct versions, please 
post it on this list.)

Thanks & regards,
Zoltan


*So, to the current status:*

    *#before make install:*
    geograph at gs01:~$ which gdalinfo
    /usr/bin/gdalinfo

    *#after make install:*   (note the different location)
    geograph at gs01:~$ which gdalinfo
    /usr/local/bin/gdalinfo

    *# So howcome?:*
    geograph at gs01:~$ */usr/bin/gdalinfo* --version
    GDAL *1.10.1*, released 2013/08/26
    geograph at gs01:~$
    geograph at gs01:~$ */usr/local/bin/gdalinfo* --version
    GDAL *1.10.1*, released 2013/08/26
    geograph at gs01:~$

*Just before sending this email I did:
*

    which gdalbuildvrt
    /usr/local/bin/gdalbuildvrt
    gdalbuildvrt --version
    ERROR 1: gdalbuildvrt was compiled against GDAL 1.11.1 but current
    library version is 1.10

*I then got into synaptic and removed gdal-bin and python-gdal but _not 
libgdal-dev and libgdal1h_ (all ver 1.10) as the last one would have 
removed grass and a bunch of other stuff, including postgre 9.4 and 
postgis, which I want.


The above is after running sudo make install:*

    geograph at gs01:~/dev/cpp/gdal-1.11.1$ sudo make install
    [sudo] password for geograph:

    (cd alg; make)
