Hi Wolfgang, 

mixing precompiled package installation with installations from source is 
dangerous and something one should never ever do.
In the normal emboss installation procedure (from source) you put the 
embassy packages within the source tree of emboss and run the compilation 
and installation from this place.
When I look at the directories you mention, where the emboss package is 
installed, this seems to be very ubuntu specific. So I hope someone who is 
familiar with ubuntu and/or the emboss package can help you with this.

David.
