It's usually best to only have 1 install at a time, though compiling from
source will (usually) put it in /usr/local, whereas the distro package will
put it in /usr/. This isn't the problem, though, read on...

Here is your problem: You do not have openssl support compiled in. The
errors you see are certain scripts "silently" failing, because they require
crypto routines that come from OpenSSL. On Ubuntu, you can install the
libssl-dev package to get the appropriate OpenSSL development headers, then
start over with:

make distclean
./configure
make

Hope this helps!
