This happens because your run-time linker - that is used to find all the libs
(which btw are .so files when they are shared) when you invoke your
application - doesn't find your locally installed library.

You can fix this several ways. One is to use the -rpath option with ld when
you link your app and another is to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment
variable to point to the lib's dir.
