    Ah, I see now what's going on.

    You say you added your library path to /etc/ld.so.conf. Did you run
    ldconfig too?

    If that does not work for you, you will have to pass ./configure the
    additional library path as said above with one of the possibilities a
    "./configure --help" offers you. Or you just edit the Makefile and add
    the -L/usr/local/lib to the proper place.
