Unless there are good reasons why you need to compile everything from 
scratch, I'd suggest that you have a look at FGS:
   http://maptools.org/fgs/

It provides exactly that, a sandbox with all the dependencies that 
doesn't affect any of the existing libs on your system, all precompiled 
and tested for Linux and installed in a few minutes.

And if you really want to compile everything yourself in a sandbox 
environment then the FGS build scripts are available, that's a little 
more complicated, but you'll find some information at 
http://maptools.org/fgs/index.phtml?page=fgs-sandbox.html
