 With the previous steps, the library will be stored in `CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH` that usually is `/usr/local`. If you want to install the library in a local folder (avoiding sudo permissions), you can add these lines in your `.bashrc` file:
 
 ```bash
-export WOLF_PREFIX=/your/local/installation/path # To be substituted by your desired installation path
-export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$WOLF_PREFIX/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
-export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$WOLF_PREFIX:$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
+export LOCAL_INSTALL_PREFIX=/your/local/installation/path # To be substituted by your desired installation path
+export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LOCAL_INSTALL_PREFIX/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
+export CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=$LOCAL_INSTALL_PREFIX:$CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
 ```
 
 And compile with:
 ```bash
-cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$WOLF_PREFIX
+cmake .. -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$LOCAL_INSTALL_PREFIX
 make
 make install
 ```
