Was it sudo make install?

If not, you probably don't have permission to install under /usr.

It would be better to update your distribution's package instead of overwriting it, or to install somewhere else (e.g., /usr/local) so you still have a packaged version of Orca that you can rely on if the version from Git fails for any reason.
