What OS?  Linux?  Windows?

If Linux, check your /etc/ld.so.conf file.  You may need to add
"/usr/local/lib" to it, then run ldconfig as root.  That will create
a new /etc/ld.so.cache file which the loader uses during runtime to
dynamically find/link libraries to the Xastir executable.

Here's what my ld.so.conf looks like on SuSE 7.3:


> cat ld.so.conf
/lib-aout
/usr/X11R6/lib/Xaw95
/usr/X11R6/lib/Xaw3d
/usr/X11R6/lib
/usr/i486-linux/lib
/usr/i486-linux-libc5/lib=libc5
/usr/i486-linux-libc6/lib=libc6
/usr/i486-linuxaout/lib
/usr/i386-suse-linux/lib
/usr/lib
/usr/local/lib
/usr/openwin/lib
/opt/kde/lib
/opt/kde2/lib
/opt/gnome/lib


The directories of most interest to me are /usr/X11R6/lib, /usr/lib,
/usr/local/lib.
