So you have two copies of the libs now? surely you need to delete them all 
and just make install. Otherwise next time you do a cvs make install only 
one set will be replaced.

Surely this is more a problem that you need some way to uninstall your 
apt-get'ed version. Rather than a make install problem, the make install 
has no way of knowing where other installation programs will have installed 
your libraries.
