Hello,
can you post the messages from make during make install?

If you did a make install, there should be a libdvdnavmini.so.4 in your 
libdir, I could be wrong about the name, I'm still unsure how libtool 
mangles names. If yes, something went wrong during make install. Wrong 
prefix maybe? Does dvdnav also come with your distro?

Also type "cd ~ && which dvdnav-config" to check where dvdnav-config 
comes from, compare them to the make install messages.

Hope it helps.
