If you anly run configure, the libs get installed in /usr/local/lib. So
either this directory is missing from /etc/ld.so.conf or make install
didn't run an ldconfig at the end, which updates the cache where to find
which libs. Btw, after a make install, you should start the binary
that's located in /usr/local/bin.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
