This is only needed if you use the git version, but yes, you're right. 
I'll update the site.

make install is necessary here.  Until you do that the files are not 
copied outside the build directory.  For example, you may need to be 
root for make install, but never for make.

For major releases of gst it is better to do so (the next major release 
will have visual-gst), for small updates you can just install on top of
the older one.
