You need the dlls in your path. Now I look I see that they are installed 
to /usr/local/lib, we'll change that to put them in /usr/local/bin.

So right now you can run minimal like this:
$ PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/lib ./minimal

Or to run from the build directory without installing:
$ PATH=$PATH:../../lib ./minimal

HTH,
Mike
