See I object to this statement. All they did was re-package the RPM's

when you do a ./configure do it with --help on the end, there is an option to
specify where the library's are if it cannot find them.
If that doesn't work, try reinstalling the rpms with the following option's:

From what I understand, it looks like some initated a kill commaned to lose
