Sorry! I am using Ubuntu 9.1

I have built two versions of the library: debug and release. Commands as 
follows:

1) ./configure CFLAGS='-g' --libdir=/usr/local/lib-dbg (to build the debug 
version of the library without the -O2 option, which messes-up debugging + 
install it in /user/local/lib-dbg)

2) make

3) make install (correctly installs in /user/local/lib-dbg/)


and for the release version:


1) ./configure CFLAGS='-O2' (to build the release version of the library with 
the -O2 option)

2) make

3) make install (correctly installs in /user/local/lib/)


I never did anything other than this for GSL and that just worked.
