But I haven't asked where are the libs installed (your $HOME/lib) - I
asked about their presence in qgis source tree: libqgis_core.so must
be created in BUILD_DIR/src/core directory - BUILD_DIR is
~/projects/qgis in your case. So ~/projects/qgis/src/core is the place
where makefiles for python bindings search for the library. Is
libqgis_core.so there or it isn't?

Btw. you have also files from old qgis installation in ~/lib (e.g.
qgis_composer, qgis_legend etc). While they shouldn't do any harm,
there's not much use for them.
