Install uim-1.8.6 from source instead of apt-get

I would like to use sticky-shift with uim-skk. According to Google Code Archive - Long-term storage for Google Code Project Hosting., sticy-shift is supported since 1.8.2.
But, uim-skk installed by apt-get seems version 1.8.1. So, I can not use sticky-shift. I have to install uim from source code instead of apt-get. Here is a procedure.

  1. apt-get update
  2. apt-get install intltool
  3. wget https://uim.googlecode.com/files/uim-1.8.6.tar.gz
  4. tar xvzf uim-1.8.6.tar.gz
  5. cd uim-1.8.6
  6. ./configure
  7. make
  8. make install
