I have not seen the code (no available time at the moment) so I don't 
know how the library is used, but if you need to check on the presence 
of a library and it's links, you can use the following and do some 
parsing on the result, hope it helps:

joe1962 at minthome:~$ ldconfig -p | grep libexif
	libexif.so.12 (libc6,x86-64) => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexif.so.12
