How to install Mesa from source?

How to install Mesa from source code in Ubuntu 18.04?
I downloaded mesa-18.1.3.tar.xz from here ftp://ftp.freedesktop.org/pub/mesa/ then extracted it, then in the directory with the sources did the following.
./configure —with-llvm-prefix=/usr/lib/llvm-7// —with-gallium-drivers=radeonsi —with-dri-drivers=radeon
make
sudo make install
It was built with no errors.
However inxi -Fxz still says I'm using old mesa. Even after reboot. I also tried using checkinstall instead of make install, but it changed nothing.
Graphics: Card: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD/ATI] Vega [Radeon Vega 8 Mobile] bus-ID: 38:00.0
Display Server: x11 (X.Org 1.19.6 ) drivers: ati,amdgpu (unloaded: modesetting,fbdev,vesa,radeon)
Resolution: 1920x1080@60.00hz
OpenGL: renderer: AMD RAVEN (DRM 3.25.0 / 4.17.2-041702-generic, LLVM 6.0.0)
version: 4.5 Mesa 18.0.0-rc5 Direct Render: Yes
I want source built mesa to be used instead of one shipped with Ubuntu.

Dotype -a mesa- perhaps the obsoletemesais in a directory that's earlier in yourPATHthan the newermesa.

It says command "mesa" isn't found.

AFAIK there's no such command at all, because Mesa is a library rather than a program.

If you want to use stable and latest Mesa drivers, I suggest you to use PPA
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:paulo-miguel-dias/pkppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install mesa

I wanted to test Mesa built with unstable LLVM 7.0 so building from source was the only way to do it. I had random crashes of graphics, but the culprit turn out to be amdgpu, not Mesa. It seems to be fixed in Linux 4.19.
