Okay, either make or make install (the latter 'including' the former, btw) should have told you that you still need to setup your runtime linker so it finds the libs. How to do that depends on your system.

./configure should have generated config.log, which might provide additional hints about what exactly failed. You should read that and report the exact parts for better analysis here (provided it's not the above error) because several checks can lead to that error.
