Well, the full procedure would be:

1. Download source package of postgresql, untar somewhere, cd to top
directory
2. ./configure <with options>; make; make install <as root>
3. cd contrib/cube; make; make install <as root>
4. start/restart the server
5. Run any .sql scripts you need to in your target database (see
README.cube)

If you're making changes you might well be restarting PG frequently, so
you might want to script that.

Does that help?
