The library is not in a standard location and it is shared, not static,
which means that the OS has to find it. Do one of the following

1) Export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=location-to-the-library before building
2) Add some --rpath flags to LDFLAGS.

1) is just a temporary hack. 2) will hardcode the location of the library.

I do not know. It seems like either a problem with your linker or that there
is indeed another copy with that version installed.
