Okay, so it turns out I do have the library after all.

I tried "whereis libXi" and it never returned anything, so I assumed I
didn't have it. Knowing where to look (/usr/X11R6/lib), was extremely
helpful.

I guess I won't trust whereis as much anymore and do a more thorough
search next time before I assume something is missing.
