One possible approach:
(1) Go to all your library directories.
(2) Run your favorite system command to list the
contents of the routines in the libraries.
(3) See if you can find the lib with your function.
(4) Make sure the path of that archive is in either
your LDPATH or in your ldconfig file.
(5) If you add the path to the ldconfig file, then
you must rerun ldconfig. Easy to test with
the LDPATH environmental var.
If you do not find the archive in 1 - 3 then you have
to either:
(1) Locate the lib for your OS and install.
(2) Find the correct source tree for your OS.
(3) Rewrite the source with the appropriate libs.
There may be better approaches. You can also check
the README files and Makefiles for lib information,
configuration suggestions, etc. Normally, modern
distributions with check for this using a configure
script.
Perhaps another forum poster has a better idea.

ldconfig
LDCONFIG(8) Linux Programmer's Manual LDCONFIG(8)
NAME
ldconfig - configure dynamic linker run-time bindings
SYNOPSIS
/sbin/ldconfig [ -nNvXV ] [ -f conf ] [ -C cache ] [ -r root ] directory ...
/sbin/ldconfig -l [ -v ] library ...
/sbin/ldconfig -p
DESCRIPTION
ldconfig creates the necessary links and cache to the most recent shared libraries found in the directories specified on the command line,
in the file /etc/ld.so.conf, and in the trusted directories (/lib and /usr/lib). The cache is used by the run-time linker, ld.so or ld-
linux.so. ldconfig checks the header and filenames of the libraries it encounters when determining which versions should have their links
updated.
ldconfig will attempt to deduce the type of ELF libs (i.e., libc5 or libc6/glibc) based on what C libs, if any, the library was linked
against.
Some existing libs do not contain enough information to allow the deduction of their type. Therefore, the /etc/ld.so.conf file format
allows the specification of an expected type. This is used only for those ELF libs which we can not work out. The format is
"dirname=TYPE", where TYPE can be libc4, libc5, or libc6. (This syntax also works on the command line.) Spaces are not allowed. Also see
the -p option. ldconfig should normally be run by the superuser as it may require write permission on some root owned directories and
files.
OPTIONS
-v Verbose mode. Print current version number, the name of each directory as it is scanned, and any links that are created. Overrides
quiet mode.
-n Only process directories specified on the command line. Don't process the trusted directories (/lib and /usr/lib) nor those speci-
fied in /etc/ld.so.conf. Implies -N.
-N Don't rebuild the cache. Unless -X is also specified, links are still updated.
-X Don't update links. Unless -N is also specified, the cache is still rebuilt.
-f conf
Use conf instead of /etc/ld.so.conf.
-C cache
Use cache instead of /etc/ld.so.cache.
-r root
Change to and use root as the root directory.
-l Library mode. Manually link individual libraries. Intended for use by experts only.
-p Print the lists of directories and candidate libraries stored in the current cache.
FILES
/lib/ld.so run-time linker/loader
/etc/ld.so.conf File containing a list of colon, space, tab, newline, or comma-separated directories in which to search for libraries.
/etc/ld.so.cache File containing an ordered list of libraries found in the directories specified in /etc/ld.so.conf, as well as those
found in /lib and /usr/lib.
