[yocto] Cannot link to custom library

[Chauhan, Himanshu]

Hi,

I have created a custom library which gets installed in /lib. Symlink
get created in /usr/lib and header file is copied to /usr/include

Then, I have another auto tool based application which should get
linked to the library mentioned above. During configure, the header
file is found but library is not found. I searched net but couldn't
find a definitive answer to the problem.

| configure: error: required library libcli not found
