Tim, thank you for your concern. Finally I installed the ubuntu packages
python-qgis (as Alex Mandel recommended) along with the
libgdal(someversion) and it worked. Still I would like to know if it is
possible to avoid installing any gdal-package from the ubuntu
repositories as I want to avoid any conflicts between custom
installations from source and utilities installed from the repo's.

Thank you all, Nikos
