Not a good idea. It's better to add pcb and lepton-eda bin/ folders to
your $PATH.

What directories did you pass via the --prefix= switch to the configure
script when building lepton-eda and pcb?

$HOME/lepton/share should be added to $XDG_DATA_DIRS:

$ export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$XDG_DATA_DIRS:$HOME/lepton/share

What desktop environment do you use? Some DE's may require you to also 
set environment variables somewhere in their configuration.

I believe there are some leftovers of the removed pcb package
(/usr/share/mime/application/x-pcb-*) or you have installed pcb
to /usr/ or /usr/local/.

Not sure about the "best" way to do things, but as an example I can
show my setup:

1) cloned git repositories folders -
passed to 'git clone [url] [destination_folder]:

$HOME/lepton/lepton.git/
$HOME/pcb/pcb.git/

2) installation folders -
passed to configure via --prefix= switch:

$HOME/lepton/bin.master/
$HOME/pcb/bin.master/

3) $PATH:

export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/lepton/bin.master/bin
export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/pcb/bin.master/bin

4) $XDG_DATA_DIRS:

export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$XDG_DATA_DIRS:$HOME/lepton/bin.master/share
export XDG_DATA_DIRS=$XDG_DATA_DIRS:$HOME/pcb/bin.master/share


Regards,
Dmitry.
