My guess (and just a guess) is that it is linking against shared libs 
not in the ld.so.conf path.

On my system (Linux) I have nettle istalled in /opt/gnutls as the prefix 
and I have a file /etc/ld.so.conf.d/gnutls.conf containing:

# For updated gnutls libraries
/opt/gnutls/lib64

(lib64 is a 64-bit redhat thing)

then ldconfig knows where they are and they can be dynamically loaded as 
needed.
