I think you have it built properly if it runs. It doesn't need to be in your path to work.

If you want it to be in your path then either create a symlink in /usr/bin or /usr/local/bin to the sigil binary in your ~/Sigil-0.8.1/run/bin folder, or eliminate the "-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~Sigil-0..8.1/run" from your original cmake command and use:

"sudo make install"

to install Sigil to the /usr/local prefix. The Sigil binary (/usr/local/bin/sigil) will be in your path.
