[GRASS-user] installing addon problem for regular users (ubuntu newbies)

[M S]

I'm on Kubuntu 9.10, using both 32 and 64 bit systems.  This output is
from 32bit.  It is GRASS 6.4 RC5.  Seems to be the same logged issue
of defaulting to /build rather than /var/lib/grass64

-------------------------
I ran "sudo make MODULE_TOPDIR=/usr/lib/grass64"

This is the first line of output"  gcc
-I/build/buildd/grass-6.4.0~rc5/dist.i486-pc-linux-gnu/include  -Wall
-g -O    -I/usr/include/gdal    -DPACKAGE=\""grassmods"\"
-I/build/buildd/grass-6.4.0~rc5/dist.i486-pc-linux-gnu/include -o
OBJ.i486-pc-linux-gnu/close.o -c close.c  "
---------------------------

If I apply the GRASS_HOME=/usr/lib/grass64:

--------------------------
$ sudo make MODULE_TOPDIR=/usr/lib/grass64 GRASS_HOME=/usr/lib/grass64

gcc -I/usr/lib/grass64/dist.i486-pc-linux-gnu/include  -Wall -g -O
-I/usr/include/gdal    -DPACKAGE=\""grassmods"\"
-I/usr/lib/grass64/dist.i486-pc-linux-gnu/include -o
OBJ.i486-pc-linux-gnu/close.o -c close.c
close.c:1:23: error: grass/gis.h: No such file or  directory
close.c:2:27: error: grass/glocale.h: No such file or directory
close.c:3:24: error: grass/dbmi.h: No such file or directory
close.c:4:24: error: grass/Vect.h: No such file or directory
-------------------------

Should it be looking in /usr/lib/grass64/include, instead of
/usr/lib/grass64/dist.i486-pc-linux-gnu/include ?   The latter
directory is empty.

If so, how do I remove the "dist.i486-pc-linux--gnu" portion from the
gcc statement?
