Plugins not visible after compilation until 'make install'

Hello everybody,

I can compile the latest commit to master on my machine (Linux Mint) without any error, but I do not see the compiled plugins when I run the result from within the terminal.

But when I do a 'sudo make install' afterwards, everything works fine (including the plugins).

Is this behaviour known or even wanted?

I'm fine doing this but it adds an extra step in the development process, slowing it down.

Somehow only system wide plugins are loaded but not the ones freshly compiled (and not yet installed) because when I have another QLC+ version from the repositories installed and I run my freshly compiled new version from the terminal, the plugins from the installed version are loaded.

Regards.

Hi, make install is indeed required to test modified sources.

Alright.

Thank you for the quick clarification.
