If these autoconf files are like most, the default is to install in
/usr/local/.  That heirarchy is outside the purview of package managers.
So it won't affect anything to do with the package managers.  And you
can usually run from the build directory even before installing, to test
i.e. from a X terminal in the build directory, ./program_name.

You should be able to set the install path as part of the ./configure
if it isn't /usr/local.

The version on F11 x86_64 is Gwave2 20090124.  It opens fine.  I'm not
sure how to use it.  When I try to open a wav file, it gives an error,
but doesn't crash, and still is available for use.  What kind of file is
it looking for?
