I am a very inexperienced Ubuntu user. I am using a computer cluster at my university via SSH. The cluster has a version of gcc that was too old for something else that I needed to install, and I am trying to install an updated version of it just in my user space. I am trying to install version 4.9.4, while the cluster has 4.4.7. I do not have sudo privileges, and cannot use apt-get. I am following instructions from the official gcc page (which was also explained in this blog post I found).
The gcc page says that the make step could take a very long time, so I left it running overnight. At some point, I think my connection was interrupted, because today morning, my terminal said "Broken pipeline". This is the last thing that was shown from the make command to the terminal on my laptop:
make[2]: Entering directory `/nfs/thry/drpv/Gowri/Software/objdir'
make[3]: Entering directory `/nfs/thry/drpv/Gowri/Software/objdir'
rm -f stage_current
make[3]: Leaving directory `/nfs/thry/drpv/Gowri/Software/objdir'
Comparing stages 2 and 3
warning: gcc/cc1-checksum.o differs
warning: gcc/cc1plus-checksum.o differs
I would expect that even if my ssh connection was interrupted, the command that I typed in on the cluster computers should finish running. Am I wrong in assuming that?
I decided to go ahead and try make install anyway, and after a few minutes of running (and showing a bunch of steps on screen), I got this:

Does this mean that the install did not work properly, and I should try to redo the make? I would like to avoid the long wait time if possible, but I can redo it if necessary. Apologies for the rather long question and thanks in advance.
