I'm the one who was talking about the build/copy. You could manually
copy a bunch of .so, but there's a reasonable chance you wouldn't need
to - in many Linux systems, you have the binary packages for heaps of
things that you don't have the dev libraries (headers, .a files,
whatever) for. At work, we have just one computer on which we build
from C source (which happens to be my personal dev unit as well); all
the other computers - other devs' laptops, staging servers, production
servers - just get binaries deployed directly. There aren't very many
libraries to install on them, as they're fully-functional Linux boxes
already (we use Debian).

It may, of course, be different on your setup, but I figured it was worth a try.
