Where should I put portaudio so that Pyaudio can find it

Question

Working on Gentoo (on the robot Nao) that has no make and no gcc on it, it is really hard for me to install portaudio. I managed to put pyaudio in the right location so that python can detect it but whenever I try "import pyaudio" it asks me to install portaudio first. i have a virtual machine running gentoo emulating the robot where gcc and make are available. I could compile portaudio on that machine but then after copying its content to the robot I cannot run make install. Where should I put each library file exactly so that pyAudio can find it?

Thanks

Finally I could find the source of the problem. Somehow portaudio is installing itself to /usr/local/ but the robot I'm working on uses the folders in /usr i.e /usr/lib /usr/include and not /usr/local/lib etc. Putting the libraries in /usr/lib and also transferring manually some portaudio libs you can find in python site-packages folder solved the problem.
